Comparison of the effects of a monounsaturated fat diet and a high carbohydrate diet on cardiovascular risk factors in first degree relatives to type-2 diabetic subjets

Article Abstract:

The effects of a monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA)-rich diet and a carbohydrate-rich diet on von Willebrand Factor (vWF) levels, blood pressure, insulin sensitivity, lipids and lipoproteins and glycaemic control were studied in normoglycaemic first-degree relatives of Type-2 diabetes mellitus (DM) subjects. It was found the isocaloric diets rich in MUFA or rich in carbohydrate, have similar effects on cardiovascular risk factors in those at high risk of developing Type-2 DM.

Triglycerides, fatty acids, sterols, mono- and disaccharides and sugar alcohols in human milk and current types of infant formula milk

Article Abstract:

Human milk and infant formulae milk have different fatty acid compositions, and cholesterol, phytosterol, monosaccharide, and sugar alcohols content. The infant formula milk contains more triglycerides, medium chain fatty acids, and phytosterol than human milk. It has less longer chain polyunsaturated fatty acids and 3-35 times less cholesterol than human milk. The formula milk has higher galactose and lower glucose, sorbitol, and myoinositol concentrations.
