Diet and risk of diabetic retinopathy: a systematic review

Abstract: Diabetic retinopathy is a microvascular complication of diabetes that threatens all individuals with diabetes, leading to vision loss or blindness if left untreated. It is frequently associated with diabetic macular edema, which can occur at any point during the development of diabetic retinopathy. The key factors known to lead to its development include hyperglycemia, hypertension, and the duration of diabetes. Though the diet is important in the development of diabetes, its role in diabetic retinopathy has n… Show more

“…Meanwhile, in the subgroup without complications no significant differences in dietary zinc intake between groups, and an undetectable heterogeneity (I 2 = 0.0%) were found ( [34]. In patients with diabetic nephropathy, diet therapies, such as protein restriction are commonly advised [37,38]. It is well known that zinc intake correlates directly with protein intake, as these two nutrients share the same food sources [39].…”

“…Based on the retrospective analysis of this study, patients with T1D were advised to reduce their total dietary fat to ,30% and the saturated fat to ,10%, as was formerly recommended by the American Diabetes Association. To this day, the evidence for the effect of dietary fat intake on DR incidence and progression remains inconclusive, and a potential positive effect of specific saturated fatty acids (SFAs) and unsaturated fatty acids has been raised (15)(16)(17)(18).…”
