High-Fiber Cereal Reduces Postprandial Insulin Responses in Hyperinsulinemic but not Normoinsulinemic Subjects
Bibliographic record
Abstract
OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to compare the plasma glucose and insulin responses elicited by two ready-to-eat breakfast cereals (one being high and the other being low in cereal fiber) and to see if the differences in response depended on subjects' fasting plasma insulin. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: Nondiabetic men (n = 77) were studied on two occasions after 10- to 14-h overnight fasts. They consumed 25 g of available carbohydrate from high- or low-fiber breakfast cereals in random order with blood taken at intervals for 2 h. Data from the 42 men with high fasting plasma insulin (FPI) on screening (>40 pmol/l) were compared with those from the 35 men with normal FPI (< or =40 pmol/l). RESULTS: Hyperinsulinemic men had significantly higher waist circumference and BMI, lower HDL cholesterol, and a trend toward higher triglycerides (P = 0.07) than control subjects. In all 77 subjects, the incremental area under the glucose response curve (AUC) after high-fiber cereal was 11.8 +/- 5.5% (P = 0.036) less than after low-fiber cereal with the reductions being equivalent in the hyperinsulinemic (12.6 +/- 8.3%) and control (10.9 +/- 9.1%) groups. However, insulin peak rise was reduced by the high-fiber cereal only in hyperinsulinemic men (351 +/- 29 vs. 485 +/- 55 pmol/l) but not in control subjects (211 +/- 20 vs. 220 +/- 20 pmol/l; cereal x group interaction P = 0.044). Insulin AUC after the high-fiber cereal, expressed as a percentage of that after low-fiber cereal, was negatively related to FPI (P = 0.009) but not to age, BMI, or waist circumference. CONCLUSIONS: The high-fiber cereal reduced glucose responses to the same extent in normal and hyperinsulinemic men, but reduced insulin responses only in hyperinsulinemic subjects.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
