Specifically, Ebbeling's group studied three dietary paradigms: an Atkins» low - carb diet (60 percent of calories from fat, 10 percent from carbs); a mixed diet with foods generally low
on the
glycemic index (40 percent of calories from fat, 40 percent from carbs); and a low - fat diet with a mix of
carbohydrates generally
high on the
glycemic index (20 percent of calories from fat, 60 percent from carbs).
These trends may be explained in part by the yo - yo effects that
high glycemic - index
carbohydrates have
on blood glucose, which can stimulate fat production and inflammation, increase overall caloric intake and lower insulin sensitivity, says David Ludwig, director of the obesity program at Children's Hospital Boston.
Each diet contained the same number of calories, but those calories came from foods that were either

You don't have to go cold turkey
on carbs, but do know this: A recent study found that a diet
high on the
glycemic index — that is, one that's full of refined
carbohydrates that cause blood sugar levels to spike — may be associated with a greater risk of lung cancer, even among non-smokers.
An excellent way to manage your insulin levels is by decreasing your

on carbs that have a
high glycemic index, typical examples being bread, potatoes and white rice.
Most people don't realize it, but refined
carbohydrates like breads, pastas and crackers are all
high on the
glycemic index, and they actually cause the same things to happen in your body that sugary foods do, even though they taste more savory than sweet.

Researchers have investigated the effects of refined sugars
on cognitive function, and conclude that «Special care in food selection at meals should be exercised by those with type 2 diabetes since ingestion of rapidly absorbed,
high —
glycemic index
carbohydrate foods further impairs medial temporal lobe function, with food - induced increases in oxidative stress and cytokine release likely explaining the association between food ingestion and reduction in cognitive function in those with type 2 diabetes (1).»
Most experts agree
on the fact that in diabetic patients treated with insulin, the substitution of dietary
carbohydrates having a

high glycemic load by complex
carbohydrates with lower figures improves the blood glucose control and reduces the hypoglycemic episodes [38].
Emphasize

A study
on psyllium - enriched snack foods found that the added fiber reduced the spike in blood sugar, known as the
glycemic response, that occurs after eating a
high - sugar or refined
carbohydrate food.
Eating less food is not the answer; you need to specifically reduce the
highest glycemic index,
carbohydrate - rich foods in order to «switch
on» fat burning.
Carbohydrate - rich foods typically have a
high Glycemic Index (GI), which is a measurement of the food's effect
on your blood sugar after consumption.
The article goes
on to say: «
High -
glycemic foods are usually refined foods, sugar and most
carbohydrates.

Because of their relatively
high carbohydrate content, the
glycemic load of green plantains is 13, so it is likely to have a moderate effect
on your blood sugar levels.
High -
glycemic carbohydrates on the other hand cause a rapid digestion of sugars and a sudden influx of glucose into the bloodstream.
The
higher the meal is
on the
glycemic index (i.e. the more sugar or refined
carbohydrate it contains), the
higher our post-meal blood sugar and insulin spikes will be.
You can eat a wide variety of low -
glycemic carbohydrates that have relatively little impact
on your blood sugar (in modest proportions) in order to fuel yourself in a way that allows for
high - intensity bouts of activity when necessary.
In fact, in a 2013 study, scientists used brain scans to observe brain function after subjects ate foods
high in processed
carbohydrates as well as foods low
on the
glycemic index, such as vegetables.
Because hypoglycemia is often an indicator of worse things to come, refined,
high -
glycemic carbohydrates should no longer be regulars
on your menu.
In the Diet, Obesity, and Gene (Diogenes) Project, increased protein consumption together with a modest reduction in
glycemic index was beneficial for weight control.49 Substituting protein for
carbohydrate also partly resulted in lower blood pressure, improved lipids levels, and concomitantly reduced cardiovascular risk.50
Higher vitamin D intake might have beneficial effects
on the reduction of visceral adipose tissue51 and other cardiovascular risk factors52.
Defining what represents a macronutritionally balanced diet remains an open question and a
high priority in nutrition research.1, 2 Quiz Ref ID In short - term randomized clinical trials, substitution of protein for
carbohydrate has been shown to favor weight management, decrease blood pressure, and improve cardiometabolic biomarkers, including blood lipid and lipoprotein profiles and
glycemic regulation.3 - 5 These beneficial effects are partly dependent
on weight loss and possibly owing to the enhanced postprandial satiety and energy expenditure when exchanging protein for
carbohydrate.6 Therefore,
high - protein and low -
carbohydrate diets have been promoted for weight loss and health improvement.
The effect of
high carbohydrate meals with different

High - protein foods with associated fat are substituted for
carbohydrates and adjusted
on the basis of outcomes, including
glycemic control and weight.
The
glycemic load in
carbohydrates can be measured
on a
high - to low - scale:
high meaning a quick spike in blood sugar, and low meaning sugars slowly digest.
Specifically, they'll get rid of or cut way back
on the
high -
glycemic index
carbohydrates and the foods or drinks with the
high sugar or HFCS content.
A study
on high vs. low
Glycemic Load diets concludes that a diet low in available
carbohydrates (sugar and starch) «reduced the chances of developing diabetes by 20 %.»
Most cats that I see as a new diabetic are
on a diet
high in
high -
glycemic index
carbohydrates, not just grains.
But that said,
carbohydrates are characterized by their
Glycemic Index (GI) and their
Glycemic Load (GL) which are measurements that reflect how
high and how rapidly a specific carb causes a rise in blood glucose when ingested and the overall impact that particular carb has
on the diabetic state.
Research (Bennet N., Greco DS, Peterson ME - Compare the effect of a
high fiber vs low
carbohydrate diet
on glycemic control in diabetic cats) showed that while both the canned diet mentioned above and a
high fiber diet had an effect, the canned diet with
higher levels of protein helped a greater percentage of cats in the study.
This type of diet focuses
on complex, low -
glycemic carbohydrates like sweet potatoes and fresh fruits and vegetables instead of grains and other
high -
glycemic carbs.
