Negative association of acetate with visceral adipose tissue and insulin levels.

TL;DR: Serum acetate was negatively associated with visceral adipose tissue and insulin levels in this population of young, obese women, and future studies need to verify these findings and expand on these observations in larger cohorts of subjects.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of adding the novel fiber, PGX®, to commonly consumed foods on glycemic response, glycemic index and GRIP: a simple and effective strategy for reducing post prandial blood glucose levels - a randomized, controlled trial.

TL;DR: Sprinkling or incorporation of NVP into a variety of different foods is highly effective in reducing postprandial glycemia and lowering the GI of a food.
Journal ArticleDOI

Glycaemic index of selected staples commonly eaten in the Caribbean and the effects of boiling v. crushing.

TL;DR: The range of GI between the staples is sufficiently large that health benefits may be accrued by replacing high- GI staples with intermediate-GI staples in the Caribbean diet.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of vitamin D supplementation on oral glucose tolerance in individuals with low vitamin D status and increased risk for developing type 2 diabetes (EVIDENCE): a double‐blind, randomized, placebo‐controlled clinical trial

TL;DR: A 24‐week double‐blind, randomized, placebo‐controlled trial is conducted to examine the effect of 28 000 IU of vitamin D3 once weekly on plasma glucose after a 2 hour‐75 g oral glucose tolerance test (2hrPC glucose), insulin sensitivity and β‐cell function.
