Canned food promotes
postprandial hyperglycemia.
The source and amount of carbohydrates consumed affect
postprandial hyperglycemia and glycemic variability more than any other dietary factor, 3,10 — 12 providing a conceptual basis for interest in carbohydrate - modified diets for T1DM.
(This process is called
postprandial hyperglycemia.)
Previous studies have indicated that
postprandial hyperglycemia and acute glycemic load result in inflammatory responses and endothelial dysfunction (27).
Many high - carbohydrate, low - fat diets may be counterproductive to weight control because they markedly increase
postprandial hyperglycemia and hyperinsulinemia.
It is very important that starches be combined with fats, fiber, and acids — vinegar or lactic acid from a ferment are best — to reduce
postprandial hyperglycemia.
Their protective effects were attributed, in part, to the avoidance of postprandial hyperglycemic peaks (4, 5) because recurrent
postprandial hyperglycemia results in overproduction of reactive free radical molecules and greater release of inflammatory cytokines (4, 6).
