DIABETES

Cryotherapy can help counteract diabetes

Findings show that cryotherapy can help counteract diabetes by reducing inflammation and assisting in weight loss. Inflammation can cause type 2 diabetes through the damage of Beta cells in the pancreas, resulting in insulin resistance and higher than normal blood sugar. Therefore, decreasing inflammation can have a great effect on preventing the onset of type 2 diabetes. Moreover, inflammation is also the culprit in many side effects of diabetes, so lowering inflammation can ease many symptoms and improve quality of life.

​

Exposure to cryotherapy somehow mimics exercise,  since it affects myokines expression in an exercise-like fashion, thus opening another possible window on the therapeutic strategies for metabolic diseases - such as obesity and type 2 diabetes.
