White Bread or White Rice? Glycemic Index Telling of CVD Risk Across Borders

email article Across the world, consumption of foods with a high glycemic index was a predictor of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and death, researchers reported from an observational study. Compared with people eating foods with a low glycemic index, those eating higher-ranking carbohydrates were at greater risk of CVD events, such as CV death, MI, stroke, and heart failure, and all-cause mortality over a median 9.5 years of follow-up. This was true whether study participants had preexisting CVD at baseline (adjusted HR 1.51, 95% CI 1.25-1.82) or not (adjusted HR 1.21, 95% CI 1.11-1.34), according to David Jenkins, MD, PhD, of the University of Toronto, and colleagues in the PURE group.

More Support for Diet to Prevent Colorectal Cancer

email article Dietary patterns and risk of colorectal cancer (CRC) are clearly linked, according to an umbrella review of meta-analyses of prospective observational studies. Overall, 24 (68.6%) of the associations deemed significant pointed to protective effects for certain dietary patterns, including adherence to a healthy diet, a Mediterranean diet, a pesco-vegetarian diet, or a semi-vegetarian diet, reported Nathorn Chaiyakunapruk, PharmD, PhD, of the University of Utah College of Pharmacy in Salt Lake City, and colleagues. The evidence was especially persuasive for an association of both red meat intake (high versus low) and alcohol (≥four drinks/day vs zero/occasional) with CRC incidence, as well as for an inverse risk association of higher versus lower intakes of dietary fiber, calcium, and yogurt. The evidence remained robust after sensitivity analyses, they stated in

Diets Ease Symptoms in Crohn s

This article is a collaboration between MedPage Today and: Both the Mediterranean diet and the Specific Carbohydrate diet were effective for symptom reduction in patients with Crohn s disease, a randomized clinical trial demonstrated. At week 6, symptomatic remission was achieved by 44% of patients on the Mediterranean diet and by 47% of those following the Specific Carbohydrate diet, reported James D. Lewis, MD, of the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia at the virtual Crohn s and Colitis Congress. And clinical remission defined by the Crohn s Disease Activity Index also was observed in similar numbers, at 48% for the Mediterranean diet and 49% for the Specific Carbohydrate diet.
