Journal ArticleDOI
Glycemic index of foods: a physiological basis for carbohydrate exchange.
David J.A. Jenkins,Thomas M.S. Wolever,Rodney H Taylor,H. M. Barker,H Fielden,J M Baldwin,A C Bowling,H C Newman,Alexandra L. Jenkins,D V Goff +9 more
TL;DR: The effect of different foods on the blood glucose levels was fed individually to groups of 5 to 10 healthy fasting volunteers, and a significant negative relationship was seen between fat and protein and postprandial glucose rise but not with fiber or sugar content.
Journal ArticleDOI
Colonic health: fermentation and short chain fatty acids.
TL;DR: More human studies are now needed on SCFAs, especially, given the diverse nature of carbohydrate substrates and the SCFA patterns resulting from their fermentation, which will be key to the success of dietary recommendations to maximize colonic disease prevention.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dietary fiber, glycemic load, and risk of NIDDM in men
Jorge Salmerón,Alberto Ascherio,Eric B. Rimm,Graham A. Colditz,Donna Spiegelman,David J.A. Jenkins,Meir J. Stampfer,Alvin L. Wing,Walter C. Willett +8 more
TL;DR: Findings support the hypothesis that diets with a high glycemic load and a low cereal fiber content increase risk of NIDDM in men and suggest that grains should be consumed in a minimally refined form to reduce the incidence of N IDDM.
Journal ArticleDOI
The glycemic index: methodology and clinical implications
TL;DR: In long-term trials, low-GI diets result in modest improvements in overall blood glucose control in patients with insulin-dependent and non-insulin-dependent diabetes and the ability of low- GI diets to reduce insulin secretion and lower blood lipid concentrations in patientswith hypertriglyceridemia is of greater therapeutic importance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dietary fibres, fibre analogues, and glucose tolerance: importance of viscosity.
David J.A. Jenkins,Thomas M.S. Wolever,Anthony R. Leeds,Miguel A. Gassull,P Haisman,Dilawari Jb,D V Goff,Metz Gl,K. G. M. M. Alberti +8 more
TL;DR: Viscous types of dietary fibre are most likely to be therapeutically useful in modifying postprandial hyperglycaemia.
