Subject: More LC Research

Hi Guys,

Well, we can certainly tell that it is diet season! It seems that this time of year, study after study is released that relates to diet and obesity. Last week I found two studies relating to LCing that I found interesting so I thought you might want to check them out too.

From Diabetes Care (Journal), 2002: "Low Glycemic Index Diet Decreases Fat Mass & Improves Plasma Lipid Profile in Moderately Overweight Nondiabetic Men," In this study, French researchers report that a low glycemic diet decreased total body fat, increased lean body mass, and improved blood lipids in overweight males. They concluded that a low glycemic diet could be of benefit in preventing metabolic diseases and cardiovascular complications. To read the study, go here: http://care.diabetesjournals.org/cgi/content/abstract/25/5/822

From The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 2002: Effect of Whole Grains on Insulin Sensitivity in Overweight Hyperinsulinemic Adults, In this study, Harvard researchers compared the effects of eating lower glycemic whole grains as compared to the effects of eating higher glycemic, refined grains. They found that the lower glycemic whole grain diet lowered insulin levels and improved insulin sensitivity. They concluded that whole grains reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes and heart disease. To read the study go here:

Both of these studies are included on my web site along with over 60 additional links to LC research that provides you with the information you need to educate your family, friends, physicians and other health care providers about the benefits of LCing. This collection includes prestigious sources such as Harvard University, Johns Hopkins, and Stanford University and major scientific publications such as American Journal of Clinical Nutrition and the Journal of the American Medical Association.

Happy reading!
