Importance Low-carbohydrate diets decrease hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) among patients with type 2 diabetes at least as much as low-fat diets. However, evidence on the effects of low-carbohydrate diets on HbA1c among individuals with HbA1c in the range of prediabetes to diabetes not treated by diabetes medications is limited.Objective To study the effect of a behavioral intervention promoting a low-carbohydrate diet… Continue reading Effects of a Low-Carbohydrate Dietary Intervention on Hemoglobin A1cA Randomized Clinical Trial

Low #carbohydrate diet and all cause and cause-specific #mortality
Evidence is limited regarding the association between low-carbohydrate diet (LCD) score and mortality among Asians, a population that consumes a large amount of carbohydrates.. ..A U-shaped association was observed between LCD score and total mortality: the multivariable-adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) (95% CI) of total mortality for lowest through highest scores were 1.00, 0.95 (0.91, 1.01),… Continue reading Low #carbohydrate diet and all cause and cause-specific #mortality
Association of Low-Carbohydrate and Low-Fat #Diets With #Mortality Among US Adults
..Overall low-carbohydrate-diet and low-fat-diet scores were not associated with total mortality. The multivariable-adjusted hazard ratios for total mortality per 20-percentile increase in dietary scores were 1.07 (95% CI, 1.02-1.11; P = .01 for trend) for unhealthy low-carbohydrate-diet score, 0.91 (95% CI, 0.87-0.95; P < .001 for trend) for healthy low-carbohydrate-diet score, 1.06 (95% CI, 1.01-1.12; P = .04 for trend) for… Continue reading Association of Low-Carbohydrate and Low-Fat #Diets With #Mortality Among US Adults
