It was widely believed that the most diet" with carbohydrate comprising 60 important principle of the diabetic diet percent of the total energy (Table 1). was to restrict carbohydrate intake. This When our patients subsisted on this principle was also followed in India diet for periods up to 10 years, we found through the 1950s. The typical diabetic that, contrary to existing beliefs, the cardi...

thirty two multiparous holstein cows were used in a randomized block design to investigate the effects of feeding diets included two different source of nonfiber carbohydrate during the transition period on dry matter intake (dmi), lactational performance, blood metabolites and parturitional characteristics. cows received total mixed rations containing either macaroni wastes(mw) or steam-flaked...

Consuming carbohydrate- and antioxidant-rich fruits during exercise as a means of supporting and enhancing both performance and health is of interest to endurance athletes. Watermelon (WM) contains carbohydrate, lycopene, l-citrulline, and l-arginine. WM may support exercise performance, augment antioxidant capacity, and act as a countermeasure to exercise-induced inflammation and innate immune...

The major purpose of this research was to gain insight into the effect of carbohydrate malabsorption on fecal water output. To do this we measured daily fecal output of total carbohydrate, reducing sugars, and organic acids (a product of bacterial fermentation). Normal subjects were studied in their native state and when diarrhea was induced by mechanisms that did and did not involve carbohydra...

OBJECTIVE Because of blood lipid concerns, diabetes associations discourage fructose at high intakes. To quantify the effect of fructose on blood lipids in diabetes, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of experimental clinical trials investigating the effect of isocaloric fructose exchange for carbohydrate on triglycerides, total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, and HDL cholesterol ...

Four rumen fistulated Holstein calves (BW 132.3 ± 1.61 kg) fed high concentrate diets (10 to 90, forage to concentrate ratio) were assigned to a 4 x 4 Latin square design to investigate the effects of nonstructural carbohydrate (barley or corn) and protein (soybean meal or sunflower meal) sources on ruminal fermentation and animal performance. The following 2 x 2 factorial arrangement of treatm...

BACKGROUND The influence of diet on atherosclerotic progression is not well established, particularly in postmenopausal women, in whom risk factors for progression may differ from those for men. OBJECTIVE The objective was to investigate associations between dietary macronutrients and progression of coronary atherosclerosis among postmenopausal women. DESIGN Quantitative coronary angiograph...

OBJECTIVE To assess the ability of a food-frequency questionnaire (FFQ) to rank Australians according to their intake of total carbohydrate, sugar, starch, fibre, glycaemic index (GI) and glycaemic load (GL). DESIGN Cross-sectional sample from a population cohort. SETTING Two postcode areas west of Sydney, Australia. SUBJECTS From 1992 to 1994, a total of 2868 older Australians provided d...

Objective: The present study aimed to determine the effects of diet of negative calorie foods (NCF) on weight, atherogenic lipids, and atherogenic ratio and compare its efficiency with diet of low calorie foods (LCF). Materials and Methods: In this randomized clinical trial, the participants were randomly selected from inactive overweight females (age 45-75 years) by parallel assignment were d...
