1. La storia dell'alimentazione
In conclusione, la soluzione al crescente peso delle malattie metaboliche potrebbe non risiedere in nuove pillole o terapie farmacologiche sempre più sofisticate, ma nel ritorno a una dieta capace di stabilizzare la glicemia dopo ogni pasto. Un’alimentazione che non faccia impazzire l’insulina, che non bombardi il corpo di zuccheri, ma che accompagni l’organismo con equilibrio, regolarità e intelligenza. Proprio come quella mediterranea, nel suo significato più autentico e originario.
Comprendere come funziona il metabolismo del glucosio, cosa accade al nostro organismo quando introduciamo zuccheri e carboidrati, e quali sono le conseguenze di un’alterata regolazione glicemica, è oggi più che mai indispensabile. Per questo motivo, nel prossimo capitolo ci concentreremo proprio su di essa: la glicemia come segnale, come indicatore e come potenziale snodo critico tra il benessere e la malattia.
