Despite extensive study, the practical significance of the glycemic index of food is still debatable. The purpose of this review paper was to evaluate the effect of glycemic index on food intake and body weight based on the analysis of published studies about this topic. According to some authors, ingestion of high glycemic index diets tends to enhance appetite and promote positive energy balan...

I am a second year Nutrition student and have a question about protein and endurance athletes. Why are their protein requirements greater than they are for resistance athletes? Is it because the muscle glycogen stores get depleted over a long period of time with intense exercise? If so, should they consume more carbohydrates than resistance athletes, with a low glycemic index prior to their wor...

The object of this note is the announcement of some results involving integration on [ — <», <*> ] with respect to functions whose values are operators into an intermediate space (see Definition B). Besides several other function spaces of interest in analysis, Sobolev and Lebesgue spaces are particular types of intermediate spaces (cf., the recent contributions of CALDERÓN, GAGLIARDO, KREIN, L...

Suppose a group G is generated by elements a1, . . . , an. Then any element g 6= 1 of G is represented as a product g1g2 . . . gk, where each gi is a generator aj or an inverse a −1 j . The smallest k that allows such a representation is called the length of g. The length of the unit element is set to 0. Notice that the length depends on the set of generators. The group G generated by a1, . . ....

Bu derleme yazıda glisemik indeks ve yükün kanser gelişimi üzerindeki potansiyel etkilerinin incelenmesi hedeflenmiştir. Glisemik ve/veya yük değeri yüksek olan besinlerin; glukoz metabolizmasını etkileyerek ileri glikasyon son ürünlerinin oluşmasına, disbiyoz gelişmesine, insülin benzeri büyüme faktörü (insulin like growth factor, IGF) aracılığı ile hücre çoğalmasına Deoksiribo Nükleik Asit (D...

OBJECTIVE The effects of carbohydrates on plasma uric acid levels are a subject of controversy. We determined the individual and combined effects of carbohydrate quality (the glycemic index) and quantity (the proportion of total daily energy [percentage of carbohydrates]) on uric acid levels. METHODS We conducted a randomized, crossover trial of 4 different diets in overweight or obese adults...

The overall goal of this project was to create a basis of knowledge on factors in rice that can be altered to moderate starch digestion rate and lower rice glycemic index (GI), as well as to identify existing US rice genotypes with relatively low GI. To achieve this, studies were designed to investigate the relationship between amylopectin structure, its branching characteristics, and starch di...
