Low-Carbohydrate Diets for Gestational Diabetes [PDF]
Nutrition therapy provides the foundation for treatment of gestational diabetes (GDM), and has historically been based on restricting carbohydrate (CHO) intake. In this paper, randomized controlled trials (RCTs) are reviewed to assess the effects of both low- and higher CHO nutrition approaches in GDM.

One Strike against Low-Carbohydrate Diets [PDF]
There is intense controversy over whether low-carbohydrate or low-fat diets are more efficacious for weight management. Using precise methodology, Hall et al. (2015) demonstrated that a low-carbohydrate diet promoted greater fat oxidation than an isocaloric low-fat diet but, in contrast to popular speculation, did not cause greater body fat loss.

A study protocol for a randomised crossover study evaluating the effect of diets differing in carbohydrate quality on ileal content and appetite regulation in healthy humans [PDF]
A major component of the digesta reaching the colon from the distal ileum is carbohydrate. This carbohydrate is subject to microbial fermentation and can radically change bacterial populations in the colon and the metabolites they produce, particularly ...

Metabolic effects of diets differing in glycaemic index depend on age and endogenous GIP [PDF]
Aims/hypothesis High- vs low-glycaemic index (GI) diets unfavourably affect body fat mass and metabolic markers in rodents. Different effects of these diets could be age-dependent, as well as mediated, in part, by carbohydrate-induced stimulation of ...

The Association between Low-Carbohydrate Diet Score and Conventional Risk Factors of Cardiovascular Diseases in Iranian Adult Population: A Cross-Sectional Study [PDF]
Background: Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the leading cause of global morbidity and mortality. The findings of previous studies on the association between a low-carbohydrate diet (LCD) and cardiovascular risk factors are inconsistent. Therefore, the
