Effect of dietary glycemic index on insulin resistance in adults without diabetes mellitus: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT: Low glycemic index (LoGI) diets are associated with decreased insulin resistance and are an effective strategy for patients with diabetes mellitus to control postprandial glucose levels. However, whether these effects on insulin resistance and glucose levels are also observable in those without diabetes mellitus is poorly understood. The present study examined the influence of LoGI diets compared with that of high glycemic index (HiGI) diets on insulin resistance in adults without diabetes mellitus. This meta-analysis included six randomized controlled trials involving 192 participants with a mean age of 52.5 years. A homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) score was calculated for each trial, and differences in HOMA-IR before and after each dietary intervention were c
