Abstract Consumption of high glycaemic index (GI) and response (GR) food such as white rice has been implicated in the development type 2 diabetes. Previous studies have reported ability individual amino acids to reduce GR carbohydrate-rich foods. Because bitter flavour acids, they rarely used GR. We now report use a palatable, preformed acid mixture form essence chicken. In all, sixteen healthy male Chinese were served 68 or 136 ml together with rice, 15 30 min before consumption rice....
The regular consumption of soy products is associated with inverse incidence type 2 diabetes, and there has been an increasing interest in the glycemia reducing potential rice bran its components. In this study, we investigated whether consuming soymilk addition (fiber) can reduce glycemic response a carbohydrate meal. Seventeen healthy Asian men (BMI: 18.5–29 kg/m2) participated randomized crossover trial. On four occasions, they consumed white bread (two times) two different soymilks...
In this study, we compared the metabolic properties of Asian staples rice and noodles, which are typically high in glycaemic index (GI), to two types spaghetti. It is hypothesised that pasta can be a healthy replacement, particularly amongst population. Thirty Chinese Indian subjects (17 men, 13 women; BMI: 18.5-25 kg/m2) participated randomised crossover trial. On seven occasions, they consumed glucose reference drink (3 times), white rice, wheat-based mee pok semolina spaghetti wholegrain...
A reduction in carbohydrate intake and low-carbohydrate diets are often advocated to prevent manage diabetes. However, limiting or eliminating carbohydrates may not be a long-term sustainable maintainable approach for everyone. Alternatively, diet strategies modulate glycemia can focus on the glycemic index (GI) of foods load (GL) meals. To assess effect 24 h by incorporating innovative functional ingredients (β-glucan, isomaltulose) alternative low GI Asian staples (noodles, rice)on control...
The aim of this study was to investigate (1) the hydrocolloid properties grass jelly on reducing glycaemic response, (2) impact phenolic compounds in Mesona chinensis L. response.A total 15 healthy Chinese men were recruited study. On each visit, subjects consumed one following three treatments, i.e. glucose solution (T1), (Mesona L.) with (T2) or gel (T3). Capillary blood and venous plasma insulin analysed over a period 180 min.The incremental area under curve for capillary group, group...
WHAT IS ENCEPHALOPATHY?Encephalopathy is a clinical state characterised by an alteration of consciousness, behaviour and/or cognition.It can present with lethargy and drowsiness, or conversely heightened agitation confusion.It arises from diffuse brain dysfunction that result myriad underlying conditions, ranging primary neurologic to systemic disorders.While encephalopathy more commonly stems global insult, it range focal neurological manifestations such as seizures, visual disturbances,...
While dietary or supplementary antioxidants are thought to inhibit delay oxidation of biological molecules, their utility in vivo has been marred by equivocal evidence. Consumption polyphenol rich foods previously shown alleviate postprandial oxidative stress and/or improve endothelial function. Although, previous studies suggested the allantoin as a biomarker stress, controlled dose response with test this humans have limited. We therefore investigated effects 2 doses curry consumption on...
Introduction:Rice is the principle staple and energy source for nearly half world's population has significant nutrition health implications.Most rice varieties are considered high glycaemic index (GI) foods.With being a major contributor to load in Asian populations, there increasing concern of its impact on development type 2 diabetes.Devising ways reduce therefore imperative.Rice cooked variety ways, such as over an open fire, electric cooker or microwave.We evaluated microwave cooking...
Spices are known to provide orosensory stimulation that can potentially influence palatability, appetite, and energy balance. Previous studies with individual spices have shown divergent effects on appetite intake measures. In a real-life context, however, several consumed in combinations, as various forms of curries. Therefore, we investigated changes postprandial plasma ghrelin response the two doses curry prepared mixed spices. The study was undertaken healthy Chinese men, between 21 40...
Abstract One third of ischemic stroke patients develop cognitive impairment. It is not known whether topographical secondary neurodegeneration within distributed brain structural covariance networks (SCNs) underlies this decline. We examined longitudinal changes in SCNs and their relationship to domain-specific decline 73 patients. Patients were scanned with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) assessed on five domains at subacute (3-months) chronic (1-year) timepoints. Individual-level SCN...
Abstract Introduction Multivessel disease in STEMI patients uncomplicated by cardiogenic shock is associated with adverse prognosis and recent evidence support complete revascularization these patients. However, the optimal timing of non-culprit lesion still debated. Methods A literature search from PubMed, Cochrane Embase databases for relevant RCTs published until December 2023 were conducted. The main outcomes interests all-cause mortality, re-infarction, target vessel revascularization....
