BACKGROUND Low-carbohydrate weight-loss diets remain popular; however, the long-term effects of these diets are not known. OBJECTIVE The objective was to examine the association between low-carbohydrate-diet score and risk of type 2 diabetes DESIGN We prospectively examined the association between low-carbohydrate-diet score (based on percentage of energy as carbohydrate, fat, and protein) ...

The effects of dietary lipid and carbohydrate, and their interaction, on growth performance and body composition of juvenileblunt snout bream Megalobrama amblycephala were investigated. Fish were fed one of eight isonitrogenous (32% crude protein) diets containing 4% or 7% lipids and 25%, 30%, 35%, or 40% carbohydrate for nine weeks. Weight gain, feed conversion ratio, protein efficiency ratio,...

I nsulin therapy is an effective strategy for achieving glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes. Although often neglected, it is important to use an appropriate diet strategy to complement the insulin. Furthermore, a basic tenet of such therapy is that insulin dosage and administration should be appropriate to balance diet and physical activity in order to maintain normoglycemia. In t...

IN BRIEF Restriction of dietary carbohydrate has been the cornerstone for treatment of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). However, there is evidence that a balanced liberalization of complex carbohydrate as part of an overall eating plan in GDM meets treatment goals and may mitigate maternal adipose tissue insulin resistance, both of which may promote optimal metabolic outcomes for mother and...

background: there is conflicting evidence on the influence of carbohydrate intake and risk of hypertriglyceridemic waist (hw) phenotype. the aim of the present study was to determine the association between dietary carbohydrate intake and the prevalence of hypertriglyceridemic waist phenotype. methods: this cross-sectional study was conducted on 442 iranian female teachers in the age range of 2...

Autoclaving-cooling is a starch physical modification technique widely used to analyze the increase in resistant levels foodstuffs. However, this has different effect on each high-carbohydrate diet. This study investigates type of carbohydrate food through autoclaving-cooling process. 31 articles using PRISMA method. Data were analyzed with Effect Size Hedges'd (standardized mean difference/SMD...

We investigated the effects of ingesting a multi-ingredient (53 g carbohydrate, 14.5 g whey protein, 5 g glutamine, 1.5 g L-carnitine-L-tartrate) supplement, carbohydrate only, or placebo on intermittent performance, perception of fatigue, immunity, and functional and metabolic markers of recovery. Sixteen amateur soccer players ingested their respective treatments before, during and after perf...

The risk of hypoglycemia is a major barrier to intensifying medical therapy in patients with diabetes who use insulin secretagogues or exogenous insulin.1–3 By promoting the transport of blood glucose into insulin-sensitive tissues, these medications can cause hypoglycemia if their action is not counterbalanced by carbohydrate intake. Conversely, excessive carbohydrate intake can override the e...

This research investigates how professional authors construct their authorial identities in English articles (RAs). Sixty were selected from three disciplines, biology, linguistics, and medicine, published by native non-native reputable international journals. First-person references the analyzed qualitatively quantitatively with help of corpus linguistic methods to examine they used express, d...
