Metabolic effects of a low-glycemic-index diet
David J.A. Jenkins,Thomas M.S. Wolever,G. R. Collier,A Ocana,A.V. Rao,G.C. Buckley,Y Lam,A Mayer,Lilian U. Thompson +8 more
TL;DR: Six healthy male volunteers underwent 2-wk metabolically controlled high-glycemic-index (GI) and low-GI diets in random order and results are of interest with respect to the effect that prolonged postprandial reductions in nutrient fluxes and insulin secretion may have on carbohydrate and lipid metabolism and renal function.
Journal ArticleDOI
Inverse association between the effect of carbohydrates on blood glucose and subsequent short-term food intake in young men
TL;DR: Food intake and subjective appetite are inversely associated with blood glucose response in the 60 min after consumption of carbohydrates, which indicates Carbohydrates with a high glycemic index suppress subjective appetite and food intake in the short term, but those with a low glycemicindex do not.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect on Blood Lipids of Very High Intakes of Fiber in Diets Low in Saturated Fat and Cholesterol
David J.A. Jenkins,Thomas M.S. Wolever,A V Rao,Robert A. Hegele,S J Mitchell,T P Ransom,D L Boctor,P. Spadafora,Alexandra L. Jenkins,C Mehling +9 more
TL;DR: Very high intakes of foods rich in soluble fiber lower blood cholesterol levels even when the main dietary modifiers of blood lipids--namely, saturated fat and cholesterol--are greatly reduced.
Journal ArticleDOI
Second-meal effect: low-glycemic-index foods eaten at dinner improve subsequent breakfast glycemic response.
TL;DR: It is concluded that the GI predicts the difference between glycemic responses of mixed dinner meals; breakfast carbohydrate tolerance is improved when low-GI foods are eaten the previous evening.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cholesterol-lowering effects of oat β-glucan: a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials.
TL;DR: There was a significantly greater effect for both LDL and total cholesterol in subjects with diabetes compared with those without (although based on few studies), and there was no significant effect of OBG on high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol or triglycerides.
