2001 John Wiley & Sons Ltd. 18 DIABETES IN OLD AGE bolic control (Paolisso et al 1993; Paolisso et al 1994a). Many elderly patients with diabetes are de®cient in magnesium and zinc, supplements of which improve their glucose metabolism (Paolisso et al 1994b; Song et al 1998). Although chromium de®ciency has been shown to cause abnormalities in glucose metabolism in animals and younger patients, there is no evidence that chromium supplements improve glucose tolerance in the elderly. In summary, there is increasing evidence to suggest that dietary abnormalities may contribute to the pathogenesis of diabetes in the elderly, and that dietary modi®cations may be of therapeutic bene®t.
Even in elderly identical twins discordant for Type 2 diabetes, the unaffected siblings clearly have evidence of abnormal glucose metabolism (Vaag et al 1995). late in life. Pathogenic mechanisms which contribute to the glucose intolerance of aging include alterations in glucose-induced insulin release and resistance to insulin-mediated glucose disposal. Early investigations suggested that glucose-induced insulin release was normal in the elderly. However, more recent studies enrolling large numbers of carefully characterized healthy young and old subjects have demonstrated de®nable alterations in glucose-induced insulin release in the aged (Iozzo et al 1999; Muller et al 1996).
