Alternative Foods in Cardio-Healthy Dietary Models That Improve Postprandial Lipemia and Insulinemia in Obese People. Nutrients. 2021 Jun 29;13(7):2225http://hdl.handle.net/10668/18134Obesity is one of the major health problems worldwide. Following healthy dietary patterns can be difficult in some countries due to the lack of availability of certain foods; thus, alternative foods are needed. Our aim was to evaluate the effect of a dietary pattern consisting of fruit, avocado, whole grains, and trout (FAWGT) on postprandial insulinemia and lipemia in obese Colombian subjects. A randomized controlled crossover study was conducted, in which 44 subjects with BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2 followed either a FAWGT diet or a diet high in saturated fat and rich in processed carbohydrates. Levels of lipids and carbohydrates were measured during the postprandial state. The FAWGT diet reduced fasting insulin, VLDL, and HOMA-IR after 8 weeks (p< 0.05), while there was a lower postprandial increase in TG, VLDL, and insulin levels after both acute and chronic intake of FAWGT diet (p < 0.05). The intake of FAWGT-diet was characterized by high consumption of foods rich in fiber, MUFAs, and vitamins C and E (p < 0.05). The consumption of a diet composed of fruit, avocado, whole grains, and trout has emerged as a valid alternative to the foods included in other heart-healthy diets since it improves postprandial lipemia and insulinemia in obese people and has similar beneficial effects to these healthy models.enAttribution 4.0 Internationalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/Alternative foodsAvocadoHealthy nutrientsObesityPostprandial insulinemiaPostprandial lipemiaTroutAnimalsBlood glucoseBody mass indexCholesterol, VLDLCross-over studiesDiet, healthyDietary carbohydratesDietary fatsEatingFastingFemaleFruitHumansHyperinsulinismHyperlipidemiasInsulinInsulin resistanceLipidsMaleMiddle agedObesityPerseaPostprandial periodSeafoodTriglyceridesTroutWhole grainsresearch article34209561open accessAyunoCarbohidratos de la dietaDieta saludableEstudios cruzadosFrutasGlucemiaGranos enterosGrasas de la dieta10.3390/nu130722252072-6643PMC8308459https://www.mdpi.com/2072-6643/13/7/2225/pdf?version=1625543408https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8308459/pdf
