Journal ArticleDOI
Fiber intake and glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus: a systematic review with meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials
Flávia Moraes Silva,Caroline K. Kramer,Jussara Carnevale de Almeida,Thais Steemburgo,Jorge Luiz Gross,Mirela Jobim de Azevedo +5 more
TL;DR: Increased fiber intake improved glycemic control, indicating it should be considered as an adjunctive tool in the treatment of patients with type 2 diabetes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Leptin and TNF-alpha promoter methylation levels measured by MSP could predict the response to a low-calorie diet
Paul Cordero,Javier Campión,Fermín I. Milagro,Estibaliz Goyenechea,Thais Steemburgo,Biola M. Javierre,J. Alfredo Martínez +6 more
TL;DR: Data suggest that leptin and TNF-alpha methylation levels could be used as epigenetic biomarkers concerning the response to a low-calorie diet and could help to predict the susceptibility to weight loss as well as some comorbidities such as hypertension or type 2 diabetes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Improvement of the metabolic syndrome profile by soluble fibre - guar gum - in patients with type 2 diabetes: a randomised clinical trial.
Valesca Dall'Alba,Flávia Moraes Silva,Juliana Peçanha Antonio,Thais Steemburgo,Caroline Persh Royer,Jussara Carnevale de Almeida,Jorge Luiz Gross,Mirela Jobim de Azevedo +7 more
TL;DR: In patients with type 2 diabetes and the MetS, the addition of PHGG to the usual diet improved cardiovascular and metabolic profiles by reducing WC, HbA1c, UAE and trans-FA.
Journal ArticleDOI
Intake of soluble fibers has a protective role for the presence of metabolic syndrome in patients with type 2 diabetes
Thais Steemburgo,Valesca Dall'Alba,Jussara Carnevale de Almeida,Themis Zelmanovitz,J. L. Gross,M J de Azevedo +5 more
TL;DR: The intake of soluble fibers, particularly from whole-grain foods and fruits, may have a protective role for the presence of MS in this selected sample of patients with type 2 DM.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dietary factors and metabolic syndrome
TL;DR: The role of dietary factors and dietary recommendations for MS were reviewed and it was demonstrated that intake of whole-grain foods were negatively associated with MS and Foods with high glycemic index were positively associated with insulin resistance and the prevalence of MS.
