  • Title: The central role of dietary fat, not carbohydrate, in the insulin resistance syndrome.
    Author: Purnell JQ, Brunzell JD.
    Journal: Curr Opin Lipidol; 1997 Feb; 8(1):17-22. PubMed ID: 9127706.
    Abstract:
    Compared with a diet high in total and saturated fat, a high carbohydrate diet improves insulin sensitivity and lipid levels. Recent studies have shown that subjects on an ad-lib low fat, high carbohydrate diet lose weight and, therefore, may have even greater improvement in the metabolic disturbances of the insulin resistance syndrome.
