The glycemic index (GI) is a relative measure of the glycemic effect of carbohydrate food [Citation12]. Glycemic load (GL) considers both quantity and quality (GI) of dietary carbohydrates [Citation13]. A study has shown that women in the highest tertile of dietary GI or GL have a ...
Food items with a published GI [18] were given preference to allow for a valid estimation of the meal GI particularly of the intervention meal. Hence, pretzels were used, i.e. the only tested German bread with a value GI > 70 [19]. If more than one published GI value was ...
At term, the food-glycemic index, specifically at dinner, was reduced significantly in women who received a customized calorie-restricted diet although it remained unchanged in the standard care group. Birthweight was significantly lower in the customized group as were the rates of large-for-gestati...
The glycemic index (GI) reflects body responses to different carbohydrate-rich foods. Generally, it cannot be simply predicted from the composition of the food but needs in vivo testing. Healthy adult volunteers with normal body mass index were recruited

We did not monitor participants’ daily dietary intake and physical activity records during the intervention period, but we did assess adherence to the beige diet with 3-d food records. It is possible that participant behavior differed between time periods, but this is not likely given the ...

monitoring dietary consumption of the person; monitoring an activity level of the person; determining a caloric balance for the person; determining a hunger index for the person; and using the hunger index and caloric balance to suggest food intake; whereby the person is assisted in their weight...
A method for achieving tight glycemic control in a patient in need thereof is disclosed. The method comprises deploying an equilibrium glucose sensor within a blood vessel in the pa
