The Role of Taurine in the Correction of Disorders of Carbohydrate Metabolism
Abdominal obesity plays an important role in the development of carbohydrate metabolism disorders. Against this background, there is and progresses leptin- and insulin resistance. Under these conditions, there is a violation of the production of free fatty acids and develops chronic oxidative stress. The situation is exacerbated by an imbalance in the amino acid composition of the body, which leads to a decrease in the level of taurine in blood plasma and tissues. In violation of carbohydrate metabolism taurine can be used as a drug that has a positive effect on the links of pathogenesis at the level of adipose tissue and at the level of the liver.
