BACKGROUND The cardiovascular and other health benefits and potential harms of protein and micronutrient deficiency of vegetarian diets continue to be debated. METHODS Study participants included urban migrants, their rural siblings and urban residents (n = 6555, mean age - 40.9 yrs) of the Indian

The glycemic index (GI) was determined in 36 non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus patients who were fed 50 g carbohydrate portions of six Indian conventional foods, including rice, a combination of rice-legume (Bengalgram, peas, and greengram), and a combination of rice-dal (greengram dal and

Three parameters, serum glucose, insulin, and growth hormone levels, were used to measure carbohydrate metabolism in 25 women not using steroid contraceptives, 48 women using combination oral contraceptives, and 27 women using low-dose progestogen oral contraceptives. Women in the combination

Exposure of the Indian catfish (Heteropneustes fossilis) to a sublethal concentration of 0.14 p.p.m. aldrin for 3, 6, 12, 48, and 96 hrs affected carbohydrate metabolism. Muscle glycogenolysis and glycogenesis were obtained at 3 and 12 hrs, respectively. Hepatic glycogenolysis occurred at 3, 48, and

Antigenic identity between the cell surface carbohydrate ligands and their excreted factor (EF) in all forms of Indian leishmaniasis were assessed by 11 carbohydrate-specific lectins. Our results demonstrated that 3 lectins, viz. PNA, SBA and WFA showed unique selectivity towards skin-dwelling

OBJECTIVE In short-term studies, adoption of a traditional diet is associated with reduction in metabolic abnormalities often found in populations experiencing rapid lifestyle changes. We examined the long-term effects of a self-assessed traditional or nontraditional dietary pattern on the

Three commonly consumed Indian rice varieties (Sona Masuri, Ponni and Surti Kolam) were tested for their glycaemic index (GI). Healthy volunteers were recruited and after an overnight fast were given a 50 g available carbohydrate portion of glucose (reference food) or different varieties of cooked

Malnutrition is a common problem in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients, and compromised intake is an important cause. There is no information available about the nutrient intakes of MHD patients in India. The nutrient intakes of 106 MHD patients were studied cross-sectionally and on follow-up.

Exposure of Indian catfish (Heteropneustes fossilis) to 5.20 ppm propoxur for 3, 6, 12, 48 and 96 h caused muscle glycogen depletion at 12 h and hepatic glycogenolysis at 3, 12, 48 and 96 h; hyperglycemia developed at all time-intervals. Blood pyruvate levels increased significantly at 12 and 48 h.
