The metabolic syndrome in relation with the glycemic index and the glycemic load

Physiology & Behavior, 2008
The metabolic syndrome (MS) is a clustering of metabolic abnormalities that increases the risk to develop chronic diseases such as cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Although its precise aetiology is unknown, dietary habits play a major role.

Glycemic Index and Glycemic Load of Carbohydrates in the Diabetes Diet

Current Diabetes Reports, 2011
Medical nutrition therapy is the first line of treatment for the prevention and management of type 2 diabetes and plays an essential part in the management of type 1 diabetes. Although traditionally advice was focused on carbohydrate quantification, it is now clear that both the amount and type of carbohydrate are important in predicting an individual ...

Understanding the glycemic index and glycemic load and their practical applications

Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2009
AbstractWe have introduced the study of synthesis pathways using two experiments: 1—the determination of the glycemic index (GI) of some foods and the effects of fiber and fat on the GI; 2—the determination of blood glucose levels after the ingestion of meals with high and low glycemic loads (GL).

Glycemic Index, Glycemic Load: New Evidence for a Link with Acne

Journal of the American College of Nutrition, 2009
In this paper, the link between high glycemic index and load will be reviewed. The data from the literature discussed relate to a short presentation of the physiopathology of acne, including the influence of hyperinsulinemia as a key factor at the beginning of acne.

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, wellness and beauty: the state of the art

Clinics in Dermatology, 2009
The glycemic index (GI) is a ranking system for carbohydrates' effect on blood glucose levels. It compares available carbohydrates gram for gram in individual foods, providing a numerical, evidence-based index of postprandial glycemia. The glycemic load (GL) is a ranking system for carbohydrate content in food portions based on their GI and the portion

Influence of High Glycemic Index and Glycemic Load Diets on Blood Pressure During Adolescence

open access: yesHypertension, 2012
We aimed to prospectively examine the association between the glycemic index and glycemic load of foods consumed and the dietary intakes of carbohydrates, sugars, fiber, and principal carbohydrate-containing food groups (eg, breads, cereals, and sugary ...

Glycemic Load and Chronic Disease

Nutrition Reviews, 2003
The glycemic index (GI) has proven to be a useful nutritional concept, providing new insights into the relationship between foods and chronic disease. Observational studies suggest that diets with a high glycemic load (GI x carbohydrate content) are independently associated with increased risk of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Postprandial

Dietary glycemic index, glycemic load and cancer: An overview of the literature

Nutrition, Metabolism and Cardiovascular Diseases, 2017
The aim of this paper is to provide an overview of the current evidence for associations between dietary glycemic index (GI) and dietary glycemic load (GL), and the risk of various types of cancer, and to summarize mechanisms proposed to explain the associations found.Medline was searched for cohort studies, case-control studies, and meta-analyses ...

Glycemic Load and Acne

2011
Acne affects 80–90% of individuals during puberty, which is a period associated with a normal decline in insulin sensitivity (Bloch et al, J Pediatr 110:481–487, 1987). Hyperinsulinemia stemming from insulin resistance may play a key role in activating a hormonal milieu conducive for acne development.
