Glycemic indices, glycemic loads, and glycemic dietetics

Journal of Equine Veterinary Science, 2004
ow-glycemic diets based on the glycemic index (GI) are being recommended for the avoidance and amelioration of the numerous diseases in humans and animals that involve insulin resistance, such as diabetes mellitus type 2 and coronary heart disease in people and some forms of laminitis, exertional rhabdomyolysis, and developmental orthopedic disease in ...

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.

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.

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 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 ...

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

Dietary glycemic index, glycemic load, and chronic disease: an umbrella review of meta-analyses of prospective cohort studies

Critical reviews in food science and nutrition, 2020
We aimed to present a comprehensive review of the association of dietary glycemic index (GI) and load (GL) with the risk of chronic disease. Published meta-analyses of prospective observational studies evaluating the association of dietary GI and GL with

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

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.
