[HTML][HTML] Whole grains, bran, and germ in relation to homocysteine and markers of glycemic control, lipids, and inflammation
MK Jensen, P Koh-Banerjee, M Franz… - The American journal of …, 2006 - Elsevier
Background: Intake of whole grains is inversely associated with risk of diabetes and
ischemic heart disease in observational studies. The lower risk associated with high whole-
grain intakes may be mediated through improvements in glycemic control, lipid profiles, or
reduced inflammation. Objective: The aim was to examine whether the intake of whole
grains, bran, and germ is related to homocysteine, plasma markers of glycemic control
(fasting insulin, hemoglobin A 1c, C-peptide, and leptin), lipids (total cholesterol …
