In comparison with the baseline , NNS consumption was not found to increase blood glucose level , and its concentration gradually declined over the course of observation following NNS consumption .
The glycemic impact of NNS consumption did not differ by type of NNS but to some extent varied by participants ’ age , body weight , and diabetic status .
Conclusions NNS consumption was not found to elevate blood glucose level .
Background / objectives Nonnutritive sweeteners ( NNSs ) are zero- or low-calorie alternatives to nutritive sweeteners , such as table sugars .
A systematic review and meta- analysis of r and omized controlled trials was conducted to quantitatively synthesize existing scientific evidence on the glycemic impact of NNSs .
Effect of glucose, glucose regulation, and word imagery value on human memory.
Changes in memory performance were examined after intake of a glucose ( 50 g ) or saccharin ( 50 mg ) solution in fasted men and women . Glucoregulation was estimated by using a recovery index to categorize participants within each gender as having poor or good recovery . Memory was assessed with word-learning tasks in which the imagery-evoking value of the words was systematic ally manipulated to yield high- and low-imagery lists . The results showed that men and women characterized as having poor glucose regulation had significantly worse memory performance under the saccharin condition . This decrement was reversed by glucose ingestion . These effects were observed for both low- and high-imagery words . This study supports the hypothesis that poor glucoregulation is associated with poor memory performance even in young healthy participants and that the ingestion of glucose can improve their memory
