Journal ArticleDOI

Nibbling versus gorging: metabolic advantages of increased meal frequency.

TL;DR: In addition to the amount and type of food eaten, the frequency of meals may be an important determinant of fasting serum lipid levels, possibly in relation to changes in insulin secretion.
Journal ArticleDOI

Adiposity, gut microbiota and faecal short chain fatty acids are linked in adult humans

TL;DR: The results support the hypothesis that colonic fermentation patterns may be altered, leading to different faecal SCFA concentrations in OWOB compared with LN humans, and help determine the role of SCFA in obesity.
Journal ArticleDOI

High α-linolenic acid flaxseed (Linum usitatissimum):some nutritional properties in humans

TL;DR: It is concluded that up to 50 g high-alpha-linolenic acid flaxseed/d is palatable, safe and may be nutritionally beneficial in humans by raising n-3 fatty acids in plasma and erythrocytes and by decreasing postprandial glucose responses.
Book ChapterDOI

The glycemic index.

TL;DR: It is suggested that the most appropriate use of the GI is to rank the glycemic effects of starchy foods which would already have been chosen for possible inclusion in the diet on the basis of their nutritional attributes, i.e. low-fat, unrefined carbohydrate.
