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.
Journal ArticleDOI
Scope and Specificity of Acarbose in Slowing Carbohydrate Absorption in Man
David J.A. Jenkins,R. H. Taylor,D. V. Goff,Hashmein Fielden,J. J. Misiewicz,D L Sarson,S.R. Bloom,K. G. M. M. Alberti +7 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that at lower doses, acarbose may prolong the time course over which carbohydrate is absorbed as does dietary fiber; as with fiber, it may be a useful adjunct to diabetic therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pectin and complications after gastric surgery: normalisation of postprandial glucose and endocrine responses.
Jenkins Dj,S.R. Bloom,R. H. Albuquerque,A. R. Leeds,D. L. Sarson,Geoffrey Metz,K. G. M. M. Alberti +6 more
TL;DR: Evidence is provided that the effects of pectin may reflect slower uptake of glucose from the gastrointestinal tract and provide evidence to support the use of unabsorbable carbohydrate gelling agents in treating hypoglycaemia after gastric surgery.
Journal Article
Manipulation of gut hormone response to food by soluble fiber and alpha-glucosidase inhibition.
David J.A. Jenkins,R. H. Taylor,R. Nineham,D. V. Goff,StephenR. Bloom,D. L. Sarson,J. J. Misiewicz,K. G. M. M. Alberti +7 more
TL;DR: The results demonstrate that the gut endocrine response can be manipulated by pharmacological interventions which alter the pattern of carbohydrate absorption and reduce the postprandial glycemic response.
Journal ArticleDOI
Letter: Metabolic effects of bran.
TL;DR: Dr St Leger is clearly unaware that even those fortunate enough to be exempted from part I MFCM examinations have nevertheless to pay the fees for them, as otherwise he would recognise that the present policies of the Faculty of Community Medicine are founded on educational grounds rather than fiscal ones.
