ObjectiveModerate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) improves glucose levels; however, whether its timing affects daily glycemic control remains unclear. This study aims to investigate the impact of lifestyle MVPA timing on daily glycemic control in sedentary adults with overweight/obesity and metabolic impairments.MethodsA total of 186 adults (50% women; age, 46.8 [SD 6.2] years) with overweight/obesity (BMI, 32.9… Continue reading Impact of #lifestyle moderate-to-vigorous #physical activity timing on #glycemic control in sedentary adults with #overweight/obesity and metabolic impairments

Continuous #glucose monitoring and intrapersonal variability in fasting #glucose
Plasma fasting glucose (FG) levels play a pivotal role in the diagnosis of prediabetes and diabetes worldwide. Here we investigated FG values using continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) devices in nondiabetic adults aged 40–70 years. FG was measured during 59,565 morning windows of 8,315 individuals (7.16 ± 3.17 days per participant). Mean FG was 96.2 ± 12.87 mg dl−1, rising by 0.234 mg dl−1 per year with… Continue reading Continuous #glucose monitoring and intrapersonal variability in fasting #glucose
Association of #glycaemic index and glycaemic load with type 2 #diabetes, cardiovascular disease, cancer, and all-cause mortality: a meta-analysis of mega cohorts of more than 100 000 participants
BackgroundThere is debate over whether the glycaemic index of foods relates to chronic disease. We aimed to assess the associations between glycaemic index (GI) and glycaemic load (GL) and type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, diabetes-related cancers, and all-cause mortality.MethodsWe did a meta-analysis of large cohorts (≥100 000 participants) identified from the Richard Doll Consortium. We searched… Continue reading Association of #glycaemic index and glycaemic load with type 2 #diabetes, cardiovascular disease, cancer, and all-cause mortality: a meta-analysis of mega cohorts of more than 100 000 participants

Blood biomarker profiles and exceptional #longevity: comparison of centenarians and non-centenarians in a 35-year follow-up of the Swedish AMORIS cohort
Comparing biomarker profiles measured at similar ages, but earlier in life, among exceptionally long-lived individuals and their shorter-lived peers can improve our understanding of aging processes. This study aimed to (i) describe and compare biomarker profiles at similar ages between 64 and 99 among individuals eventually becoming centenarians and their shorter-lived peers, (ii) investigate the association… Continue reading Blood biomarker profiles and exceptional #longevity: comparison of centenarians and non-centenarians in a 35-year follow-up of the Swedish AMORIS cohort
Artificial sweeteners induce glucose intolerance by altering the gut microbiota
AbstractNon-caloric artificial sweeteners (NAS) are among the most widely used food additives worldwide, regularly consumed by lean and obese individuals alike. NAS consumption is considered safe and beneficial owing to their low caloric content, yet supporting scientific data remain sparse and controversial. Here we demonstrate that consumption of commonly used NAS formulations drives the development… Continue reading Artificial sweeteners induce glucose intolerance by altering the gut microbiota
Effects of non-nutritive (artificial vs natural) sweeteners on 24-h glucose profiles
Replacing nutritive sweetener with non-nutritive sweeteners (NNS) has the potential to improve glycaemic control. The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of consuming artificial NNS (that is, aspartame), natural NNS (that is, monk fruit and stevia), and sucrose-sweetened beverages on 24-h glucose profiles. Ten healthy males took part in this randomised, crossover… Continue reading Effects of non-nutritive (artificial vs natural) sweeteners on 24-h glucose profiles
Midlife lipid and glucose levels are associated with Alzheimer’s disease
IntroductionIt is unknown whether vascular and metabolic diseases assessed in early adulthood are associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD) later in life. MethodsAssociation of AD with lipid fractions, glucose, blood pressure, body mass index (BMI), and smoking obtained prospectively from 4932 Framingham Heart Study (FHS) participants across nine quadrennial examinations was evaluated using Cox proportional hazard… Continue reading Midlife lipid and glucose levels are associated with Alzheimer’s disease
Fasting plasma #glucose level in the range of 90 to 99 mg/dL and the risk of the onset of type 2 #diabetes: Population-based Panasonic cohort study 2
As the association between fasting glucose concentration from 90 to 99 mg/dL and the onset of type 2 diabetes is still controversial, we aimed to assess it in 37,148 Japanese individuals with normal plasma glucose concentration. Materials and MethodsThis long-term retrospective cohort study included individuals with medical checkup at Panasonic Corporation from 2008 to 2018.… Continue reading Fasting plasma #glucose level in the range of 90 to 99 mg/dL and the risk of the onset of type 2 #diabetes: Population-based Panasonic cohort study 2
