... Abstract Background: Carbohydrate counting used in dietary therapy for diabetes is based on the concept that the postprandial rise in blood glucose levels is primarily affected by ingested carbohydrates. This method has been widely accepted and used since 1993, when its usefulness...

... oral glucose tolerance test); DM2 = diabetes mellitus type 2, defined by an impaired fasting glucose (IFG) >7 and/or a 2 h oral glucose tolerance test result >11.1 mmol/l; CH = carbohydrate; CVCluster = two or three cardiovascular clusters; 1Risk = risk of accumulation of two or more...

... Abstract A flexible therapy for type 1 diabetes based on carbohydrate counting and insulin dose adjustment can promote glycemic control and quality of life without worsening severe hypoglycemia or cardiovascular risk. The complexity of the standard education required by the flexible therapy can...

... Abstract Carbohydrate intake during prolonged exercise has been shown to increase endurance capacity and improve performance. Until recently, the advice was to ingest 30-60 g of carbohydrate per hour. The upper limit was based on studies that demonstrated that intakes greater than 60-70 g/h...

... Abstract Carbohydrate feeding has been shown to enhance endurance performance. During exercise of 2 h or more, the delivery of carbohydrates to the muscle is the crucial step and appears to be limited by intestinal absorption. It is therefore important to identify ways to overcome...

... and cons of training with low carbohydrate within a periodized training program. Introduction In 1858 [ 1 ], Claude Bernard reported the successful isolation of carbohydrate from liver and muscle. This discovery began a century and half of research aimed at determining the function and clinical...

... availability per se provides a ‘trigger’ for adaptation. Consumption of low-carbohydrate, high- fat diets in the face of endurance training alters patterns of fuel utilization and subsequent exercise responses. Human studies show how low-carbohydrate, fat-rich diets interact with specific contractile stimulus...

... correspond to its chemoreceptors for PTS carbohydrates, and several targeting subunits, which include in the low [G + C] Gram-positive bacteria an ancillary Ser/Thr-protein kinase. The PTS senses the presence of carbohydrates, in particular glucose, in the medium and the energy state of the cell, in the form...
