A knowledge of normal metabohsm is essential for an understanding of abnormalities underlying disease. Normal metabolism includes adaptation to periods of starvation, exercise, pregnancy, and lactation. Abnormal metabolism may result from nutritional deficiency, enzyme deficiency, abnormal secretion of hormones, or the actions of drugs and toxins. An important example of a metabolic disease is diabetes mellitus.

Another form of diabetes is non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM, or adult diabetes, or type II diabetes). In this case, insulin is produced and a normal insulin level is detected in blood. But for various reasons its effect is reduced. This may be caused by a reduced number of insulin receptors on cells, or reduced effectiveness in binding to these receptors. The cause is complex and may involve genetic make-up, changes in lifestyle, nutritional habits, and environmental factors.

Early applications of crystalline fructose focused on foods for special dietary applications, primarily calorie reduction and diabetes control. The latter application sought to capitalize on a significantly lower serum glucose level and insulin response in subjects with noninsulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (21,22) and insulin-dependent diabetes (23). However, because fructose is a nutritive sweetener and because dietary fmctose conversion to glucose in the liver requires insulin in the same way as dietary glucose or sucrose, recommendations for its use are the same as for other nutritive sugars (24). Review of the health effects of dietary fmctose is available (25).

Because ADRs are more likely to occur in the very young and the elderly, lower drug dosages may be indicated at these two extremes of the human life span. The elderly are more likely to have diseases such as cancer, coronary heart disease, dementia, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, and osteoporosis and may also have adverse nutritional reactions. Deficiencies in liver and kidney function can result in marked delay of drug detoxification and elimination. Constant review of established diagnoses and treatments is important to minimize the number of drugs administered, and care must be taken to determine whether other nutritional supplements and herbal products are being incorporated into self-treatment.

Metabolic diseases A fatty liver does not require a low-fat diet, but standard nutrition based on general reference values for normal daily routine. With a normal body weight and an increased energy requirement (work, sports), the calorie intake has to be adjusted accordingly. In overweight patients, a slow, continuous, yet systematic weight reduction should be strived for. Coexistent hyperlipoproteinaemia may require supportive treatment. Diabetes mellitus must be properly eon-trolled. This also applies to concomitant gout. 

An over iew of the di ease diabetes mellitus will be used to supply motivation prior to starling our journey through the pathways of energy production. Diabetes mellitus is a major health concern on a global basis. This disease takes two forms, i-e-, insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) and nan-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM). Nutritional intervention is used in the treatment of diabetes, as revealed later in this chapter and in the Obesity chapter. IDDM is easily treated by injections of insulin, while NIDDM is more difficult to tneat. NIDDM is treated with insulin and by weight reduction in obese patients. Use of soluble fiber in the diet may be used in the treatment of both types of diabetes. 

The consumption of sucrose as a sweetener has been associated with several nutritional and medical problems, with dental caries being the most well-documented [1]. Sucrose intake may also be a factor in cardiovascular disease, diabetes mellitus, obesity, and micronutrient deficiency [2]. Therefore, there has been a continual demand for novel... 

Niacin is a nutritional supplement used during periods of deficiency known as pellagra and for the treatment of dyslipidemia. Niacin needs may increase during chronic illness such as diabetes mellitus, malignancy, metabolic diseases, hyperthyroidism, infections, chronic fever, alcoholism, and during pregnancy and lactation.
