The recent increase in diabetes must be caused by an environmental change. Modern food processing can produce glycation end products such as oxidised ascorbic acid and lipoic acid, which may cause diabetes. Infant formula in particular has high levels of glycation end-products. Further, a casomorphin released from A1 beta casein in bovine milk can become glycated and have adverse diabetogenic effects. The invention provides a method to make infant formulas and other foods and beverages with as low a content of glycation end products as possible, involving cold sterilisation and avoidance of "preservatives" such as ascorbic acid. |
