Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluation of a glucose meter for determining the glycemic responses of foods.
TL;DR: AUC and GI values determined by OTU are more variable and do not agree well with those obtained by YSI, and the OTU is not recommended for determining AUC or GI in normal subjects.
Journal ArticleDOI
l-Rhamnose increases serum propionate after long-term supplementation, but lactulose does not raise serum acetate
TL;DR: This study confirmed that l-rhamnose ingestion over 28 d continues to selectively raise serum propionate in humans, and suggested that these substrates could be used to examine the role of colonic acetate and Propionate production in the effect of dietary fiber on lipid metabolism.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cross-Sectional and Prospective Associations between Abdominal Adiposity and Proinsulin Concentration

TL;DR: The hypothesis that beta-cell dysfunction occurs early in the natural history of glucose intolerance occurs in a Native Canadian population experiencing an epidemic of type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) is supported.
Journal ArticleDOI
Attenuation of glycemic responses by oat β-glucan solutions and viscoelastic gels is dependent on molecular weight distribution
TL;DR: Observed effects were found to be related to the rheological properties of the foods and β-Glucan solutions and not gels effectively attenuated in vivo glycemic responses.
Journal ArticleDOI
L-rhamnose and lactulose decrease serum triacylglycerols and their rates of synthesis, but do not affect serum cholesterol concentrations in men.

TL;DR: The results do not support a primary role for propionate in the cholesterol-lowering effect of soluble fiber, but both lactulose and L-rhamnose lowered serum TG (expressed as a percentage change) and TGFA synthesis, compared with d-glucose, which increased them.
