藜麦是营养丰富的一类全谷物，具有低升糖、低淀粉、低脂等特点。由于藜麦的必需氨基酸组成与人体接近，是优 质蛋白来源，而且藜麦所富含维生素C、维生素E、皂苷、多酚、黄酮等抗氧化物质对降低糖尿病患者餐后血糖、改善超重或肥 胖、降低血脂、降低心血管疾病发病风险、抗炎和抗肿瘤等方面具有重要作用，其中藜麦对血糖的调节作用尤为突出。近年来 通过人群和动物试验表明藜麦饮食有助于缓解餐后血糖的上升幅度、改善葡萄糖耐量。藜麦对血糖调节作用主要通过缓慢释 放葡萄糖，减轻胰岛分泌负担，促进胰岛细胞活性，改善胰岛素抵抗、糖代谢、肠道微生物菌群等发挥调节血糖的作用。此外， 藜麦还有降脂、改善超重或肥胖、减轻炎症反应等潜在健康益处。本文主要阐述藜麦的营养价值，藜麦对血糖调节作用及调节 机制，以及其他潜在健康益处，为其进一步研究开发提供依据。

Quinoa is a kind of nutritious fake grain, which has the characteristics of low sugar, low starch, low fat and so on. Because the essential amino acid composition of quinoa is close to that of the human body, it is a source of high quality protein, and quinoa is rich in antioxidants such as vitamin C, E, saponins, polyphenols and flavonoids to reduce postprandial blood sugar in patients with diabetes. it plays an important role in improving overweight/obesity, reducing blood lipids, reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease, anti⁃inflammation, anti⁃tumor and so on. Among them, quinoa plays a particularly prominent role in regulating blood sugar. In recent years, human and animal experiments have shown that quinoa diet can alleviate the increase of postprandial blood glucose and improve glucose tolerance. Quinoa regulates blood glucose mainly by slowly releasing glucose, reducing the burden of insulin secretion, promoting islet cell activity, improving insulin resistance, improving glucose metabolism, improving intestinal microflora and so on. In addition, quinoa also reduces diabetes risk factors by reducing blood lipids, improving overweight or obesity, reducing inflammation and other potential health benefits. This paper mainly describes the nutritional value of quinoa, the effect and mechanism of quinoa on blood glucose regulation, as well as other potential health benefits, so as to provide a basis for further research and development.
