Health risks associated with elevated postprandial glucose or increased glycaemic variability

"Implications of Elevated Postprandial Glucose and Nutritional Approaches for Postprandial Glucose Management with a Focus on Whey Proteins". Dr. John Sievenpiper and Professor Bo Ahrén discuss postprandial glucose management at the 2022 58th EASD (European Association of the Study of Diabetes) Annual Meeting.

We heard from Joanne Turner, Dietitian and Exercise Physiologist from NuActive Health. Joanne talked us through the latest on nutritional management for Type 2 Diabetes.

An open label, randomised, crossover study that looks at the effect and tolerance of a diabetes-specific formula on acute glucose, insulin, and triglyceride responses in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). This study demonstrated that the diabetes-specific formula resulted in lower post-meal blood glucose and insulin levels as compared with an isocaloric meal.

Dr. John Sievenpiper and Professor Bo Ahrén discuss postprandial glucose management at the 2022 58th EASD (European Association of the Study of Diabetes) Annual Meeting.   

This presentation discusses the prevalence and impact of malnutrition in patients with diabetes and reviews key considerations for nutritional support of individuals with hyperglycaemia, obesity, and COVID-19 in hospital and post-acute care settings.

The lectures highlight the role and use of nutrition intervention for diabetes management and potential to achieve diabetes remission. Topics include weight management and very low energy diets, use of nutritional supplements in diabetes care, and sarcopenia and diabetes.

At the 2021 annual meeting of the European Association for the Study of Diabetes (EASD) Louis Monnier explores the health risks associated with elevated postprandial glucose or increased glycaemic variability whilst Bo Ahrén looks at the Nonpharmacological interventions for postprandial glucose management.

"Nonpharmacological interventions for postprandial glucose management" from the NNI Symposium at the 2021 Virtual EASD Annual Meeting -- Postprandial Glycaemic Excursions: Implications for Health and Effects of Nonpharmacological Interventions. This video is presented by Professor Bo Ahren from Lund University.

A randomised, clinical trial exploring the effect of skipping breakfast on blood glucose levels after a subsequent isocaloric lunch and dinner. The study found that skipping breakfast increases post-prandial glucose levels after lunch and dinner, demonstrating a long-term influence of breakfast on glucose regulation throughout the day.

A systematic review and meta-analysis on the benefits of nutritional support in patients with type 1 or type 2 diabetes. This study demonstrated that that short and long term use of diabetes-specific formulas such as oral nutrition supplements and tube feeds are associated with improved glycaemic control compared with standard formulas.
