Glycemic index, glycemic load and renal cell carcinoma risk

Annals of Oncology, 2009
The risk of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) has been related to refined cereals and starchy foods, but the association has not been studied in terms of glycemic index (GI) and glycemic load (GL). To provide information on this issue, we analyzed data from an Italian multicentric case-control study.Cases were 767 patients with histologically confirmed ...

International table of glycemic index and glycemic load values: 2002, [PDF]

The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 2002
Reliable tables of glycemic index (GI) compiled from the scientific literature are instrumental in improving the quality of research examining the relation between GI, glycemic load, and health. The GI has proven to be a more useful nutritional concept than is the chemical classification of carbohydrate (as simple or complex, as sugars or starches, or ...

Carbohydrates, Glycemic Index, and Glycemic Load in Relation to Bladder Cancer Risk

Frontiers in Oncology, 2020
Objective: Epidemiologic studies investigating the association between dietary carbohydrates as well as glycemic index and glycemic load (markers of carbohydrate quality) and bladder cancer risk have yielded inconsistent results.

Dietary glycemic and insulin indices with the risk of osteoporosis: results from the Iranian teachers cohort study

Frontiers in Nutrition
BackgroundOsteoporosis is a chronic condition characterized by reduced bone strength and an elevated risk of fractures. The influence of diet and glucose metabolism on bone health and the development of osteoporosis has been an area of interest.

Glycemic index, glycemic load and risk of gastric cancer

Annals of Oncology, 2004
Dietary carbohydrates have been directly associated with gastric cancer risk and have been considered general indicators of a poor diet. However, elevated levels of glucose and insulin elicited by consumption of high amounts of refined carbohydrates may stimulate mitogenic and cancer-promoting insulin-like growth factors (IGF).

Glycemic index and glycemic load of commercial Italian foods

Nutrition, Metabolism and Cardiovascular Diseases, 2016
The glycemic index (GI) and glycemic load (GL) are useful parameters in the nutritional classification of carbohydrate foods. Diets characterized by a low GI and/or a low GL have been repeatedly and independently associated with decreased risk of diabetes and other chronic diseases. The aim of this study is to report the GI and GL value of carbohydrate-

Association of dietary glycemic and insulin index/load with odds of major depressive disorder: a case-control study

BMC Psychiatry
Background Dietary carbohydrate quality, reflected by glycemic index/load and insulin index/load, may influence brain function and mood through mechanisms such as glycemic fluctuations, oxidative stress, and inflammation.

Glycemic index, glycemic load, and risk of type 2 diabetes,, [PDF]

The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 2002
The possibility that high, long-term intake of carbohydrates that are rapidly absorbed as glucose may increase the risk of type 2 diabetes has been a long-standing controversy. Two main mechanisms have been hypothesized, one mediated by increases in insulin resistance and the other by pancreatic exhaustion as a result of the increased demand for ...
