    Input: OBJECTIVE To test whether a weight loss program promotes greater weight loss , glycemic control , and improved cardiovascular disease risk factors compared with control conditions and whether there is a differential response to higher versus lower carbohydrate intake . RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS This r and omized controlled trial at two university medical centers enrolled 227 overweight or obese adults with type 2 diabetes and assigned them to parallel in-person diet and exercise counseling , with prepackaged foods in a planned menu during the initial phase , or to usual care ( UC ; two weight loss counseling sessions and monthly contacts ) . RESULTS Relative weight loss was 7.4 % ( 95 % CI 5.7–9.2 % ) , 9.0 % ( 7.1–10.9 % ) , and 2.5 % ( 1.3–3.8 % ) for the lower fat , lower carbohydrate , and UC groups ( P < 0.001 intervention effect ) . Glycemic control markers and triglyceride levels were lower in the intervention groups compared with UC group at 1 year ( fasting glucose 141 [ 95 % CI 133–149 ] vs. 159 [ 144–174 ] mg/dL , P = 0.023 ; hemoglobin A1c 6.9 % [ 6.6–7.1 % ] vs. 7.5 % [ 7.1–7.9 % ] or 52 [ 49–54 ] vs. 58 [ 54–63 ] mmol/mol , P = 0.001 ; triglycerides 148 [ 134–163 ] vs. 204 [ 173–234 ] mg/dL , P < 0.001 ) . The lower versus higher carbohydrate groups maintained lower hemoglobin A1c ( 6.6 % [ 95 % CI 6.3–6.8 % ] vs. 7.2 % [ 6.8–7.5 % ] or 49 [ 45–51 ] vs. 55 [ 51–58 ] mmol/mol ) at 1 year ( P = 0.008 ) . CONCLUSIONS The weight loss program result ed in greater weight loss and improved glycemic control in type 2 diabetes We served a low-fat ( 28 % of energy ) , high-fiber ( 3.3 g/MJ ) diet according to Nordic nutrition recommendations ( Rec diet ) , and a high-fat diet ( 39 % of energy ) corresponding to the average Danish diet ( Dane diet ) for periods of 2 wk in a r and omized crossover study of 21 healthy middle-aged individuals . The Rec diet result ed in lower serum concentrations of low-density-lipoprotein ( LDL ) cholesterol ( medians : 2.77 vs 3.04 mmol/L , P < 0.001 ) and high-density-lipoprotein ( HDL ) cholesterol ( 1.08 vs 1.24 mmol/L , P < 0.001 ) , and higher fasting triglycerides ( 1.11 vs 0.86 mmol/L , P = 0.04 ) than did the Dane diet . Furthermore , the Rec diet lowered plasma factor VII coagulant activity ( FVIIc ) ( 88 % vs 96 % , P = 0.002 ) and raised plasma fibrinolytic activity . Our observations indicate that a low-fat , high-fiber diet may not only reduce the atherogenic but also the thrombogenic tendency of an individual compared with a diet corresponding to the average Danish diet BACKGROUND Ad libitum , low-carbohydrate diets decrease caloric intake and cause weight loss . It is unclear whether these effects are due to the reduced carbohydrate content of such diets or to their associated increase in protein intake . OBJECTIVE We tested the hypothesis that increasing the protein content while maintaining the carbohydrate content of the diet lowers body weight by decreasing appetite and spontaneous caloric intake . DESIGN Appetite , caloric intake , body weight , and fat mass were measured in 19 subjects placed sequentially on the following diets : a weight-maintaining diet ( 15 % protein , 35 % fat , and 50 % carbohydrate ) for 2 wk , an isocaloric diet ( 30 % protein , 20 % fat , and 50 % carbohydrate ) for 2 wk , and an ad libitum diet ( 30 % protein , 20 % fat , and 50 % carbohydrate ) for 12 wk .  Blood was sample d frequently at the end of each diet phase to measure the area under the plasma concentration versus time curve ( AUC ) for insulin , leptin , and ghrelin . RESULTS Satiety was markedly increased with the isocaloric high-protein diet despite an unchanged leptin AUC . Mean ( + /-SE ) spontaneous energy intake decreased by 441 + /- 63 kcal/d , body weight decreased by 4.9 + /- 0.5 kg , and fat mass decreased by 3.7 + /- 0.4 kg with the ad libitum , high-protein diet , despite a significantly decreased leptin AUC and increased ghrelin AUC . CONCLUSIONS An increase in dietary protein from 15 % to 30 % of energy at a constant carbohydrate intake produces a sustained decrease in ad libitum caloric intake that may be mediated by increased central nervous system leptin sensitivity and results in significant weight loss . This anorexic effect of protein may contribute to the weight loss produced by low-carbohydrate diets BACKGROUND The regional Mediterranean Diet has been associated with lower risk of disease . OBJECTIVE We tested the health effects of the New Nordic Diet ( NND ) , which is a gastronomically driven regional , organic , and environmentally friendly diet , in a carefully controlled but free-living setting . DESIGN A total of 181 central ly obese men and women , with a mean ( range ) age of 42 y ( 20 - 66 y ) , body mass index ( in kg/m(2 ) ) of 30.2 ( 22.6 - 47.3 ) , and waist circumference of 100 cm ( 80 - 138 cm ) were r and omly assigned to receive either the NND ( high in fruit , vegetables , whole grains , and fish ) or an average Danish diet ( ADD ) for 26 wk . Participants received cookbooks and all foods ad libitum and free of charge by using a shop model . The primary endpoint was the weight change analyzed by both completer and intention-to-treat analyses . RESULTS A total of 147 subjects [ 81 % ( NND 81 % ; ADD 82 % ) ] completed the intervention . A high dietary compliance was achieved , with significant differences in dietary intakes between groups . The mean ( ±SEM ) weight change was -4.7 ± 0.5 kg for the NND compared with -1.5 ± 0.5 kg for the ADD ( adjusted difference : -3.2 kg ; 95 % CI : -4.6 , -1.8 kg ; P < 0.001 ) for the completer analysis , and the difference was -3.0 kg ( 95 % CI : -4.0 , -2.1 kg ) for the intention-to-treat analysis . The NND produced greater reductions in systolic blood pressure ( adjusted difference : -5.1 mm Hg ; 95 % CI : -8.2 , -2.1 mm Hg ) and diastolic blood pressure ( adjusted difference : -3.2 mm Hg ; 95 % CI : -5.7 , -0.8 mm Hg ) than did the ADD . CONCLUSION An ad libitum NND produces weight loss and blood pressure reduction in central ly obese individuals . This trial was registered at www . clinical trials.gov as NCT01195610 OBJECTIVE To investigate the long-term associations of magnesium intake with incidence of diabetes , systemic inflammation , and insulin resistance among young American adults . RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS A total of 4,497 Americans , aged 18–30 years , who had no diabetes at baseline , were prospect ively examined for  incident diabetes based on quintiles of magnesium intake . We also investigated the associations between magnesium intake and inflammatory markers , i.e. , high-sensitivity C-reactive protein ( hs-CRP ) , interleukin-6 ( IL-6 ) , and fibrinogen , and the homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance ( HOMA-IR ) . RESULTS During the 20-year follow-up , 330 incident cases of diabetes were identified . Magnesium intake was inversely associated with incidence of diabetes after adjustment for potential confounders . The multivariable-adjusted hazard ratio of diabetes for participants in the highest quintile of magnesium intake was 0.53 ( 95 % CI , 0.32–0.86 ; Ptrend < 0.01 ) compared with those in the lowest quintile . Consistently ,  magnesium  intake was significantly inversely associated with hs-CRP , IL-6 , fibrinogen , and HOMA-IR , and serum magnesium levels were inversely correlated with hs-CRP and HOMA-IR . CONCLUSIONS Magnesium intake was inversely longitudinally associated with incidence of diabetes in young American adults . This inverse association may be explained , at least in part , by the inverse correlations of magnesium intake with systemic inflammation and insulin resistance Children 's vitamin D intake and status can be optimised to meet recommendations . We investigated if nutritionally balanced school meals with weekly fish servings affected serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D ( 25(OH)D ) and markers related to bone in 8- to 11-year-old Danish children . We conducted an explorative secondary outcome analysis on data from 784 children from the OPUS School Meal Study , a cluster-r and omised cross-over trial where children received school meals for 3 months and habitual lunch for 3 months . At baseline , and at the end of each dietary period , 25(OH)D , parathyroid hormone ( PTH ) , osteocalcin ( OC ) , insulin-like growth factor-1 ( IGF-1 ) , bone mineral content ( BMC ) , bone area ( BA ) , bone mineral density ( BMD ) , dietary intake and physical activity were assessed . School meals increased vitamin D intake by 0·9 ( 95 % CI 0·7 , 1·1 ) μg/d . No consistent effects were found on 25(OH)D , BMC , BA , BMD , IGF-1 or OC . However , season-modified effects were observed with 25(OH)D , i.e. children completing the school meal period in January/February had higher 25(OH)D status ( 5·5 ( 95 % CI 1·8 , 9·2 ) nmol/l ; P = 0·004 ) than children completing the control period in these months . A similar tendency was indicated in November/December ( 4·1 ( 95 % CI –0·12 , 8·3 ) nmol/l ; P = 0·057 ) . However , the effect was opposite in March/April ( –4·0 ( 95 % CI –7·0 , –0·9 ) nmol/l ; P = 0·010 ) , and no difference was found in May/June ( P = 0·214 ) . Unexpectedly , the school meals slightly increased PTH ( 0·18 ( 95 % CI 0·07 , 0·29 ) pmol/l ) compared with habitual lunch . Small increases in dietary vitamin D might hold potential to mitigate the winter nadir in Danish children 's 25(OH)D status while higher increases appear necessary to affect status throughout the year . More trials on effects of vitamin D intake from natural foods are needed It is widely assumed that nutrition can improve school performance in children ; however , evidence remains limited and inconclusive . In the present study , we investigated whether serving healthy school meals influenced concentration and school performance of 8- to 11-year-old Danish children . The OPUS ( Optimal well-being , development and health for Danish children through a healthy New Nordic Diet ) School Meal Study was a cluster-r and omised , controlled , cross-over trial comparing a healthy school meal programme with the usual packed lunch from home ( control ) each for 3 months ( NCT 01457794 ) . The d2 test of attention , the Learning Rating Scale ( LRS ) and st and ard tests on reading and mathematics proficiency were administered at baseline and at the end of each study period . Intervention effects were evaluated using hierarchical mixed models . The school meal intervention did not influence concentration performance ( CP ; primary outcome , n 693 ) or processing speed ; however , the decrease in error percentage was 0·18 points smaller ( P<0·001 ) in the intervention period than in the control period ( medians : baseline 2·03 % ; intervention 1·46 % ; control 1·37 % ) . In contrast , the intervention increased reading speed ( 0·7 sentence , P=0·009 ) and the number of correct sentences ( 1·8 sentences , P<0·001 ) , which corresponded to 11 and 25 % , respectively , of the effect of one school year . The percentage of correct sentences also

This dietary pattern did not significantly affect 2-h post-pr and ial blood glucose and Matsuda index .
Conclusions Adherence to the ND might improve serum insulin and HOMA-IR levels ; however , this effect was not confirmed for other markers of blood glucose control .
