Background In single-meal studies, dietary protein does not result in an increase in glucose
concentrations in persons with or without type 2 diabetes, even though the resulting amino …

Type II diabetic subjects were given 50 g protein, 50 g glucose, or 50 g glucose with 50 g
protein as a single meal in random sequence. The plasma glucose and insulin response was …

There has been interest in the effect of various types and amounts of dietary carbohydrates
and proteins on blood glucose. On the basis of our previous data, we designed a high-protein…

We previously have shown that ingested beef protein is just as potent as glucose in stimulating
a rise in insulin concentration in type II diabetic patients. A synergistic effect was seen …

Background: The metabolic effects of dietary protein are complex. In persons with type 2
diabetes, protein ingestion results in little or no increase in plasma glucose concentrations but a …

Information on the metabolic response in people with non-insulin-dependent diabetes
mellitus (NIDDM) to ingested individual macronutrients is limited. Available information is …

We have been interested in the metabolic effects of ingested fuels, both in normal subjects
and in people with type 2 diabetes. Recently, we have become interested in the regulation of …

The brain noradrenergic system supplies the neurotransmitter norepinephrine throughout
the brain via widespread efferent projections, and plays a pivotal role in modulating cognitive …

Diets with increased protein and reduced carbohydrates have been shown to improve body
composition, lipid and lipoprotein profiles, and glycemic regulations associated with …

Background Over the past several years our research group has taken a systematic,
comprehensive approach to determining the effects on body function (hormonal and non-hormonal) …
