Glycemic Index, Glycemic Control and Beyond

open access: yesCurrent Pharmaceutical Design, 2014
It is currently estimated that over 370 million individuals have diabetes, making diabetes a major public health issue contributing significantly to global morbidity and mortality. The steep rise in diabetes prevalence over the past decades is attributable, in a large part, to lifestyle changes, with dietary habits and behaviour as significant ...

Glycemic Index

Nutrition Today, 2013
Inflammation is intimately linked to a variety of chronic diseases and precursors to these diseases, including metabolic syndrome (MetS). Because carbohydrate foods are associated with glycemic and insulin responses and may be linked to levels of inflammation and insulin resistance (IR), both glycemic index (GI) and glycemic load (GL) have been ...

Glycemic Index, Glycemic Load, and Thrombogenesis

Seminars in Thrombosis and Hemostasis, 2009
Hyperglycemia and insulin resistance are independent risk factors for cardiovascular disease (CVD). Postprandial glycemic "spikes" adversely affect vascular structure and function via multiple mechanisms including oxidative stress, inflammation, low-density lipoprotein oxidation, protein glycation, and procoagulant activity.

Glycemic Index and Glycemic Load

2016
The glycemic index (GI) ranks carbohydrates in food according to the extent to which they raise blood glucose levels after eating. The GI gives a rough estimation as to how quickly a 50-gram serving of a particular food converts to sugar and raises the blood glucose level above normal.

Glycemic index, glycemic load and risk of prostate cancer

International Journal of Cancer, 2004
AbstractDietary carbohydrates have different glycemic and insulinemic potentials depending on type (glycemic index, GI) and amount (glycemic load, GL) of carbohydrate consumed or both. Insulin in turn has been implicated as a risk factor for several cancers, including that of the prostate.
