Data from these sources do not support linkages between sugar consumption at normal levels within the human diet and various adverse metabolic and health-related effects
Abstract The relationship between sugar consumption and various health-related sequelas is controversial .
Some investigators have argued that excessive sugar consumption is associated with increased risk of obesity , coronary heart disease , diabetes ( T2D ) , metabolic syndrome , non-alcoholic fatty liver disease , and stimulation of reward pathways in the brain potentially causing excessive caloric consumption .
These concerns have influenced organizations such as the World Health Organization , the Scientific Advisory Committee on Nutrition in Engl and not to exceed 5 % of total energy and the Dietary Guidelines for Americans Advisory Committee 2015 to recommend upper limits of sugar consumption not to exceed 10 % of calories .
Data from many r and omized control trials ( RCTs ) do not support linkages between sugar consumption at normal levels within the human diet and various adverse metabolic and health-related effects .
Fructose and glucose are typically consumed together in roughly equal proportions from high-fructose corn syrup ( also known as isoglucose in Europe ) or sucrose .
The purpose of this review is to present data from recent RCTs and findings from recent systematic review s and meta-analyses related to sugar consumption and its putative health effects .
This review evaluates findings from recent r and omized controlled trials , systematic review s and meta-analyses into the relationship of sugar consumption and a range of health-related issues including energy-regulating hormones , obesity , cardiovascular disease , diabetes , and accumulation of liver fat and neurologic responses .
Glycemic index and dietary fiber and the risk of type 2 diabetes.
OBJECTIVE To examine associations between type 2 diabetes and fiber , glycemic load ( GL ) , dietary glycemic index ( GI ) , and fiber-rich foods . RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS This was a prospect i ve study of 36,787 men and women aged 40 - 69 years without diabetes . For all self-reported cases of diabetes at 4-year follow-up , confirmation of diagnosis was sought from medical practitioners . Case subjects were those who reported diabetes at follow-up and for whom there was no evidence that they did not have type 2 diabetes . Data were analyzed with logistic regression , adjusting for country of birth , physical activity , family history of diabetes , alcohol and energy intake , education , 5-year weight change , sex , and age . RESULTS Follow-up was completed by 31,641 ( 86 % ) participants , and 365 cases were identified . The odds ratio ( OR ) for the highest quartile of white bread intake compared with the lowest was 1.37 ( 95 % CI 1.04 - 1.81 ; P for trend = 0.001 ) . Intakes of carbohydrate ( OR per 200 g/day 0.58 , 0.36 - 0.95 ) , sugars ( OR per 100 g/day 0.61 , 0.47 - 0.79 ) , and magnesium ( OR per 500 mg/day 0.62 , 0.43 - 0.90 ) were inversely associated with incidence of diabetes , whereas intake of starch ( OR per 100 g/day 1.47 , 1.06 - 2.05 ) and dietary GI ( OR per 10 units 1.32 , 1.05 - 1.66 ) were positively associated with diabetes . These relationships were attenuated after adjustment for BMI and waist-to-hip ratio . CONCLUSIONS Reducing dietary GI while maintaining a high carbohydrate intake may reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes . One way to achieve this would be to substitute white bread with low-GI breads
