    Input: A study was made of the effect of high or low intake of sucrose for periods of 14 days in a group of nineteen apparently healthy men . The high sucrose diet produced no change in blood levels of cholesterol or phospholipids , or in glucose tolerance , but it produced a significant rise in triglycerides in all nineteen men . In six of them , there was in addition a rise in serum immunoreactive insulin , especially during the glucose tolerance test , and these same six subjects also showed a considerable increase in weight and a significant increase in platelet adhesiveness . There was no difference between the six subjects and the remaining thirteen in any of the other measurements , or in the diets they consumed during the experiment . The changes produced by sucrose had disappeared , or nearly so , after 14 days of normal diet . It is suggested that the effect of sucrose in producing hyperinsulinism may be more relevant to its possible role in the aetiology of ischaemic heart disease than its effect on blood lipids . It is further suggested that only some individuals are susceptible to the development of ischaemic heart disease by dietary sucrose , and that these may be identified as those that show ‘ sucrose-induced hyperinsulinism ’ BACKGROUND This study assessed if walking at a self-selected pace could improve postpr and ial glucose and insulin concentrations in obese adolescents consuming high-fructose ( HF ) or high-glucose ( HG ) diets . METHODS Seven obese male and female adolescents ( 18 ± 1 yr ) performed 4 , 15-day trials in a r and om order , including 1 ) HF-diet ( 50 g fructose/d added to normal diet ) while being sedentary , 2 ) HG-diet ( 50 g glucose/d ) while sedentary , 3 ) HF-diet with additional walking , and 4 ) HG-diet with additional walking . On the 15th day of each trial , the participants performed mixed meal testing in the laboratory in which they consumed three liquid shakes ( either HF or HG ) and during the HF and HG sedentary trials , the participants took < 4000 steps while in the laboratory but during the walking trials took ≥ 13,000 steps during testing . RESULTS Walking did not alter postpr and ial glucose concentrations . Although walking reduced insulin secretion by 34 % and 25 % during the HF- and HG-diet , respectively ( P < .05 ) , total insulin concentrations were only significantly reduced ( P > .05 ) with walking during the HF trial , possibly because walking enhanced insulin clearance to a greater extent during the HF-diet . CONCLUSIONS Walking reduces postpr and ial insulin secretion in obese adolescents consuming a high-fructose or high-glucose diet BACKGROUND & AIMS Diets high in fructose have been proposed to contribute to nonalcoholic fatty liver disease . We compared the effects of high-fructose and matched glucose intake on hepatic triacylglycerol ( TAG ) concentration and other liver parameters . DESIGN In a double-blind study , we r and omly assigned 32 healthy but central ly overweight men to groups that received either a high-fructose or high-glucose diet ( 25 % energy ) . These diets were provided during an initial isocaloric period of 2 weeks , followed by a 6-week washout period , and then again during a hypercaloric 2-week period . The primary outcome measure was hepatic level of TAG , with additional assessment s of TAG levels in serum and soleus muscle , hepatic levels of adenosine triphosphate , and systemic and hepatic insulin resistance . RESULTS During the isocaloric period of the study , both groups had stable body weights and concentrations of TAG in liver , serum , and soleus muscle . The high-fructose diet produced an increase of 22 ± 52 μmol/L in the serum level of uric acid , whereas the high-glucose diet led to a reduction of 23 ± 25 μmol/L ( P < .01 ) . The high-fructose diet also produced an increase of 0.8 ± 0.9 in the homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance , whereas the high-glucose diet produced an increase of only 0.1 ± 0.7 ( P = .03 ) . During the hypercaloric period , participants in the high-fructose and high-glucose groups had similar increases in weight ( 1.0 ± 1.4 vs 0.6 ± 1.0 kg ; P = .29 ) and absolute concentration of TAG in liver ( 1.70 % ± 2.6 % vs 2.05 % ± 2.9 % ; P = .73 ) and serum ( 0.36 ± 0.75 vs 0.33 ± 0.38 mmol/L ; P = .91 ) , and similar results in biochemical assays of liver function . Body weight changes were associated with changes in liver biochemistry and concentration of TAGs . CONCLUSIONS In the isocaloric period , overweight men who were on a high-fructose or a high-glucose diet did not develop any significant changes in hepatic concentration of TAGs or serum levels of liver enzymes . However , in the hypercaloric period , both high-fructose and high-glucose diets produced significant increases in these parameters without any significant difference between the 2 groups . This indicates an energy-mediated , rather than a specific macronutrient-mediated , effect . Clinical trials.gov no : NCT01050140 Background Raisins are a significant source of dietary fiber and polyphenols , which may reduce cardiovascular disease ( CVD ) risk by affecting lipoprotein metabolism and inflammation . Walking represents a low intensity exercise intervention that may also reduce CVD risk . The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of consuming raisins , increasing steps walked , or a combination of these interventions on blood pressure , plasma lipids , glucose , insulin and inflammatory cytokines . Results Thirty-four men and postmenopausal women were matched for weight and gender and r and omly assigned to consume 1 cup raisins/d ( RAISIN ) , increase the amount of steps walked/d ( WALK ) or a combination of both interventions ( RAISINS + WALK ) . The subjects completed a 2 wk run-in period , followed by a 6 wk intervention . Systolic blood pressure was reduced for all subjects ( P = 0.008 ) . Plasma total cholesterol was decreased by 9.4 % for all subjects ( P < 0.005 ) , which was explained by a 13.7 % reduction in plasma LDL cholesterol ( LDL-C ) ( P < 0.001 ) . Plasma triglycerides ( TG ) concentrations were decreased by 19.5 % for WALK ( P < 0.05 for group effect ) . Plasma TNF-α was decreased from 3.5 ng/L to 2.1 ng/L for RAISIN ( P < 0.025 for time and group × time effect ) . All subjects had a reduction in plasma sICAM-1 ( P < 0.01 ) . Conclusion This research shows that simple lifestyle modifications such as adding raisins to the diet or increasing steps walked have distinct beneficial effects on CVD risk Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease ( NAFLD ) is now thought to be the most common liver disease worldwide . Cardiovascular complications are a leading cause of mortality in NAFLD . Fructose , a common nutrient in the westernized diet , has been reported to be associated with increased cardiovascular risk , but its impact on adolescents with NAFLD is not well understood . We design ed a 4-week r and omized , controlled , double-blinded beverage intervention study . Twenty-four overweight Hispanic-American adolescents who had hepatic fat > 8 % on imaging and who were regular consumers of sweet beverages were enrolled and r and omized to calorie-matched study -provided fructose only or glucose only beverages . After 4 weeks , there was no significant change in hepatic fat or body weight in either group . In the glucose beverage group there was significantly improved adipose insulin sensitivity , high sensitivity C-reactive protein ( hs-CRP ) , and low-density lipoprotein ( LDL ) oxidation . These findings demonstrate that reduction of fructose improves several important factors related to cardiovascular disease despite a lack of measurable improvement in hepatic steatosis . Reducing dietary fructose may be an effective intervention to blunt atherosclerosis progression among NAFLD patients and should be evaluated in longer term clinical trials OBJECTIVE Assumptions have linked orange juice ( OJ ) consumption with weight gain and adverse effects on health due to its sugar content ; however , epidemiologic studies have not shown increased risk for overweight or obesity with the consumption of 100 % OJ . The aim of this study was to verify whether the combination of a reduced-calorie diet ( RCD ) and 100 % OJ contribute to weight loss , promote changes in glucose and lipid metabolism , and improve diet quality in obese individuals . METHODS A r and omized controlled trial with 78 obese patients ( age 36 ± 1 y , body mass index [ BMI ] 33 ± 3 kg/m2 ) were enrolled in two groups : Individuals in the OJ group su bmi tted to an RCD that included OJ ( 500 mL/d ) , and individuals in the control group su bmi tted to an RCD without OJ . Body composition , biochemical biomarkers , and dietary intake were analyzed over a 12-wk period . RESULTS Both treatments had similar outcomes regarding body weight ( -6.5 kg ; P = 0.363 ) , BMI ( -2.5 kg/m2 ; P = 0.34 ) , lean mass ( -1 kg ; P = 0.29 ) , fat mass ( -5 kg ; P = 0.58 ) , body fat ( -3 % ; P = 0.15 ) , and waist-to-hip ratio ( -0.1 ; P = 0.79 ) . Insulin levels in the OJ group decreased by 18 % ( P = 0.05 ) , homeostasis model assessment -insulin resistance by 33 % ( P = 0.04 ) , total cholesterol by 24 % ( P = 0.004 ) , low-density lipoprotein cholesterol by 24 % ( P ≤ 0.001 ) , and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein levels by 33 % ( P = 0.001 ) compared with the control group . Consumption of energy and nutrients was similar between the two groups , but vitamin C and folate increased by 62 % ( P ≤ 0.015 ) and 39 % ( P = 0.033 ) , respectively , after OJ intervention . CONCLUSION When consumed concomitantly with an RCD , OJ does not inhibit weight loss ; ameliorate the insulin sensitivity , lipid profile , or inflammatory status , or contribute nutritionally to the quality of the diet We have studied whether the sucrose-induced reduction of insulin sensitivity and cellular insulin binding in normal man is related to the fructose or the glucose moiety . Seven young healthy subjects were fed their usual diets plus 1000 kcal extra glucose per day and eight young healthy subjects were fed their usual diets with addition of 1000 kcal extra fructose per day . The dietary regimens continued for 1 week . Before change of diet there were no statistically significant differences between body weight and fasting plasma concentrations of glucose , insulin , and ketone bodies in the two groups studied . High-glucose feeding caused no significant changes in insulin binding or insulin sensitivity whereas high-fructose feeding was accompanied by a significant reduction both of insulin binding ( P less than 0.05 ) and insulin sensitivity ( P less than 0.05 ) . The changes in insulin binding and insulin sensitivity correlated linearly ( r = 0.52 , P less than 0.01 ) . We conclude that fructose seems to be responsible for the impaired insulin binding and insulin sensitivity induced by sucrose Ten hyperinsulinemic and 11 nonhyperinsulinemic men consumed a typical American diet containing 20 % of calories either as fructose or as high-amylose cornstarch for 5 wk in a crossover design to determine their effects on indices of glucose tolerance . Blood glucose , insulin , and fructose  were determined before and 30 , 60 , 90 , 120 and 180 min after breakfast , lunch , and dinner . Glucose responses were significantly lower 60 and 120 min and the insulin response lower 60 min after the meals containing fructose .  Hyperinsulinemic men showed a tendency toward decreased insulin sensitivity after consuming fructose on the basis of an increased insulin-to-glucose ratio and decreased insulin binding to erythrocytes . These results generally show a beneficial effect of fructose on glucose tolerance ; however , recommendations for including large amounts of fructose in the diet should also be based on a complete evaluation of the effect on other metabolic risk factors BACKGROUND About 9 % of average dietary energy intake in the United States comes from fructose . Such a high consumption raises concern about the metabolic effects of this sugar . OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to determine the effect of dietary fructose on plasma lipids .

There was interaction by food source , with specific food sources showing beneficial effects ( fruit and fruit juice ) or harmful effects ( sweetened milk and mixed sources ) in substitution studies and harmful effects ( sugars‐sweetened beverages and fruit juice ) in addition studies on at least one outcome .
Conclusions Energy control and food source appear to mediate the effect of fructose‐containing sugars on glycaemic control .
Although most food sources of these sugars ( especially fruit ) do not have a harmful effect in energy matched substitutions with other macronutrients , several food sources of fructose‐containing sugars ( especially sugars‐sweetened beverages ) adding excess energy to diets have harmful effects .
