Not exact matches

Those who ate the diet higher in fiber had lower levels of both plasma glucose (blood sugar) and insulin (the hormone that helps blood sugar get into cells).

In a chronic sleep deprivation experiment, young mice were sensitized to insulin and had improved control of their blood sugar, whereas aged animals became hyperglycemic and failed to maintain appropriate plasma insulin concentrations.

Liposuction did not significantly alter the insulin sensitivity of muscle, liver, or adipose tissue (assessed by the stimulation of glucose disposal, the suppression of glucose production, and the suppression of lipolysis, respectively); did not significantly alter plasma concentrations of C - reactive protein, interleukin - 6, tumor necrosis factor alpha, and adiponectin; and did not significantly affect other risk factors for coronary heart disease (blood pressure and plasma glucose, insulin, and lipid concentrations) in either group.

Insulin, plasma glucose and adiponectin were also tested, and OGTTs (oral glucose tolerance tests) were given, which measure how fast glucose is cleared from the blood.

Another study published in the international journal of medicine QJM found that diets rich in oleic acid, such as the Mediterranean diet, can improve plasma glucose, insulin sensitivity and blood circulation under fasting conditions, which suggests a direct link with better diabetes control and a reduced risk for other serious diseases.

The blood glucose, plasma insulin, hemoglobin, glycated hemoglobin, activities of the various antioxidant enzymes (catalase, superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase and glutathione reductase) and lipid peroxidation markers (malondialdehyde, hydroperoxides and conjugated dienes) were evaluated in all the groups.

In animal studies, phloretin obtain from apples has been shown to help stabilize blood glucose levels, plasma insulin levels, and lessen insulin resistance as measured by the homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA - IR).

One study showed that a meal with a mix of carbohydrates and capsaicin (an active component of chili peppers) lowered both blood sugar AND plasma insulin levels.

Blood was sampled frequently at the end of each diet phase to measure the area under the plasma concentration versus time curve (AUC) for insulin, leptin, and ghrelin.

Technically diabetes mellitus (DM) is a metabolic disease, where the body is unable to produce enough (or any) insulin, which causes these very high glucose levels in blood plasma of patients who have it.

However, they did find that low - carb diets were associated with significant decreases in body weight as well as improvements in several cardiovascular risk factors, including decreases in triglycerides, fasting glucose, blood pressure, body mass index, abdominal circumference, plasma insulin and c - reactive protein, as well as an increase in HDL «good» cholesterol.

In a study of 2,761 women and 2,103 men without clinically diagnosed diabetes, sitting time was detrimentally associated with waist circumference, BMI (body mass index), weight gain, blood pressure, fasting blood fats, HDL cholesterol, two hour postload plasma glucose, and fasting insulin - a sure way to put on weight.

While physical activity lowered plasma triglyceride more with regular activity breaks, activity breaks were more effective than continuous physical activity at decreasing negative blood sugar and insulin levels in healthy, normal - weight adults.

Patients with advanced AD show higher plasma but lower CSF insulin concentrations than healthy controls.40 Clearly, then, the lower concentration of insulin in the brain is not a result of reduced circulating levels in the blood.

At each timepoint, 5 mL of venous blood was collected (by means of a indwelling cannula kept patent with the use of a saline drip) for the measurement of plasma glucose, insulin, and nonesterified fatty acids (NEFAs); the blood was stored at − 20 °C (for glucose measurements) or − 80 °C (for insulin and NEFA measurements) until analysis.

Changes in fasting plasma glucose, fasting insulin, blood pressure, and total, LDL, and HDL cholesterol were similar across dietary treatments (P ≥ 0.20).

Blood glucose and plasma insulin responses to various carbohydrates in type 2 (non-insulin-dependent) diabetes

The diagnosis of diabetes, by conventional standards, (though I believe that diabetes ought to be diagnosed by insulin and leptin values rather than blood glucose), is defined as a fasting plasma / serum measurement of 126.

On the last day of each dietary period, blood samples were obtained every two hours for measurements of plasma glucose and insulin.
