Discusses the glycaemic index (GI), which compares the effect on blood glucose levels of equal amounts of carbohydrates in various foods, and its effect on diabetes management. History of the GI; Effects sugar has on the blood levels of diabetics; Use of the GI in the dietary treatment of...
The last decade has seen much interest in the physiological response to carbohydrate foods. Interest in dietary fibre emphasised the possible influence of events within the gastrointestinal tract on carbohydrate metabolism. Links have be... DJ Jenkins,RH Taylor,TM Wolever - 《Diabetologia》 被引量:...
health effects of LoCHO diets on renal and skeletal mass [34]. On the other hand, there is evidence that increasing sugar intake adds empty calories by displacement of whole foods and has been associated with a linear decrease in intake of many essential nutrients as demonstrated by Bogalusa He...

Carbohydrate is the main nutrient in starches, fruits, milk, and sugar-containing foods and has the greatest effect on blood glucose levels. Sugars, starches, and fibers, rather than simple or complex carbohydrates are now the preferred names for carbohydrate categories, because these terms reflect...
The extent of hyperglycemia in diabetics is also measured by determination of hemoglobin A1C, which is formed from irreversible glycosylation of the terminal amino groups. • Amylopectin (α-1,4 linkages + α-1,6 linkages) has a branched structure; a branch point occurs every 25–30 glucose ...
1.Any of a group of organic compounds, including sugars, starches, celluloses, and gums, that contain only carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen and that originate chiefly as products of photosynthesis. Carbohydrates serve as a major energy source for living things. ...
