Dietary glycemic index, glycemic load, and the risk of breast cancer in an Italian pros... - 0 views

  • GI is a measure of carbohydrate quality in relation to glucose availability and is independent of quantity, whereas GL is a measure of the total glycemic effect and hence is anindicator of the insulin demand of the diet. High-glycemic diets are in fact generally associated with greater insulin secretion
  • the consumption of large quantities of high-GI foods rather than the consumption of high quantities of carbohydrates is linked to the development of breast cancer.

  •  
    High glycemic index diet was found to be associated with increased risk of colon and bladder cancer where as a high glycemic load was associated with increased risk of colon cancer and other diabetes-related cancers.

International Tables of Glycemic Index and Glycemic Load Values: 2008 - 1 views

  •  
    Great article from 2008 that discusses glycemic index and glycemic load.  What is great about this article is the supplementary appendix listing the above for > 1000 items.

    Study finds link between higher glycemic index and glycemic load with increased breast cancer risk.   The proposed mechanisms are: hyperinsulinemia and its affinity for IGF-1 receptor resulting in a + growth signal.  Increased IGF-1 via the same mechanism. Insulin and IGF-1 have negative regulation effects on SHBG. This all makes sense as insulin receptors are highly expressed on cancer cells.

Dietary Insulin Load and Cancer Recurrence and Survival in Patients With Stage III Colo... - 0 views

  •  
    New prospective study of 1023 patients finds that high-insulogenic diet, also know as a traditional American diet, high glycemic, high sugar diet... is associated with an increased risk of cancer recurrence and mortality compared to low insulogenic diet.  The authors concluded that this would be beneficial for after surgical resection in people with stage III colon cancer. My question, is why wait on the development of cancer: use a low-insulogenic diet to prevent the cancer all together or when diagnosed implement immediately.  Why wait? Treat early! Prevent!
