Nutrition in the News
The constant struggle diabetics face to monitor and maintain stable blood sugar levels may have just become much easier, according to a new European study. Published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition (Vol. 82, No. 1, 76-83, July 2005?), the study found that supplementing high-glycemic meals with protein shake supplements helped keep blood sugar levels near their normal levels in many type 2 diabetics.
When the shakes were replaced with other protein sources, such as lean meats, the stabilizing effect was much more muted. Researchers plan further studies on the ability of low-glycemic foods such as protein shake powder to achieve a muting effect on blood sugar after the consumption of particularly starchy foods.
