Dietary fiber.

Z Madar, R Thorne

    Progress in Food & Nutrition Science
    |January 1, 1987
    PubMed
    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Dietary fiber (DF) helps manage blood glucose and lipid levels, especially in diabetes. Soybean and fenugreek are beneficial sources, but caution is advised with high doses due to potential nutrient absorption issues.

    Area of Science:

    • Nutrition Science
    • Metabolic Health
    • Gastroenterology

    Background:

    • Dietary fiber's role in managing plasma glucose and lipid levels is increasingly recognized.
    • Previous research has established the link between dietary fiber intake and metabolic control.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review recent studies on dietary fiber (DF) and its impact on metabolic health.
    • To discuss the efficacy and mechanisms of soybean and fenugreek as sources of dietary fiber.
    • To evaluate the safety and potential side effects of dietary fiber supplementation.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of studies on dietary fiber over the past five years.
    • Laboratory investigation of soybean and fenugreek as dietary fiber sources.
    • Analysis of the physiological mechanisms by which dietary fiber affects nutrient absorption and metabolic parameters.

    Main Results:

    • Soybean and fenugreek dietary fiber show potential in reducing plasma glucose in non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus.
    • Dietary fiber effectively controls blood glucose and lipid levels in pregnant diabetic women, potentially reducing insulin needs.
    • Adverse effects like mineral malabsorption can occur with high fiber intake, necessitating cautious supplementation, especially for vulnerable populations.

    Conclusions:

    • Dietary fiber, particularly from sources like soybean and fenugreek, offers benefits for glycemic and lipid control.
    • Understanding the source and composition of dietary fiber is crucial for optimizing its physiological effects.
    • Combining diverse fiber sources can enhance palatability and minimize adverse effects, making dietary fiber management more effective and safer.
