TL;DR: It is concluded that antibiotics can reduce serum lipids acutely and may confound diagnostic measurements but indicate possible links between colonic microflora and blood lipids and the need to study ways of altering colonicmicroflora by nonantibiotic means as a potential therapeutic option.
Journal Article

N. W. Rodger,Jean-Louis Chiasson,Robert G. Josse,J. A. Hunt,C. Palmason,Stuart A. Ross,Edmond A. Ryan,M. H. Tan,Thomas M.S. Wolever +8 more
TL;DR: The addition of acarbose expands the armamentarium available to clinicians for the optimization of glycemic control in patients with NIDDM and results in significant reductions in postprandial blood glucose levels.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reduction of Postprandial Glycemia by the Novel Viscous Polysaccharide PGX, in a Dose-Dependent Manner, Independent of Food Form
TL;DR: Addition of NVP to different food matrices is highly effective in lowering the glycemic index of a food in a dose-responsive manner.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: It is concluded that 6.7 g of psyllium fiber daily, with a low-fat diet, reduces serum cholesterol levels in both men and women with hyperlipidemia.
Journal ArticleDOI
One-year Acarbose Treatment Raises Fasting Serum Acetate in Diabetic Patients
Thomas M.S. Wolever,R. Radmard,Jean-Louis Chiasson,J. A. Hunt,Robert G. Josse,C. Palmason,N. W. Rodger,Stuart A. Ross,Edmond A. Ryan,M.H. Tan +9 more
TL;DR: It is concluded, in subjects with diabetes who tolerate therapy for a 1‐year period, that acarbose treatment increases serum acetate, and the magnitude of change in acetate was unrelated to side‐effects or changes in blood glucose control or serum lipids.
