There is also wide variation in the content of oils. (different poly phenols etc.. ) <br /><br />The type of sunflower oil they used claims to be only 9%LA (if you believe them) - similar to palm oil. The total would be about 14%LA<br /><br />To do this research correctly, they would have to add <b>chemically</b> distinct MUFA and SFA. Of course you need error bars etc as well.. <br /><br />Sad to see so much research money wasted.. Lets say the paper is mostly correct - then eating a bunch of MUFA induces insulin sensitivity - so people can't lose weight - and get ever fatter?<br /><br />The idea that the cause of T2D is a problem with insulin sensitivity is wrong - when people are over weight they NEED insulin resistance to lose weight - and should be until the excess fat is gone. T2D is a symptom of obesity - not the cause. karlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13490274388549702613noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8550919611653842066.post-37163995360077476242016-03-09T12:33:06.181-08:002016-03-09T12:33:06.181-08:00Yes, plainly in that case the outcome was anticipa...Yes, plainly in that case the outcome was anticipated so well that the experiment was no longer designed to test it.<br /><br />Although MUFA is usually productive of better insulin sensitivity this is not always the case.<br /><br />Pregnancy is a state in which insulin resistance is natural, but in gestational diabetes it has become over-loaded by the anti-insulin hormones of pregnancy in those at risk of type 2 diabetes.<br />In this condition SFA (butter) with a meal (bread and low-fat cottage cheese) improves glycaemia more than MUFA (olive oil) does.<br /><br />"The area under the curve showed a significantly lower glucose concentration for SF meal (p = 0.001). Serum insulin concentrations followed the glucose response with the peak at the 60-min time point and a significantly lower concentration at the 180-min time point in the SF than in the MUFA group. The present study demonstrated that the addition of SF to the meal resulted in lower postprandial glucose and insulin than when the meal contained MUFA. Thus, SF may be useful in controlling postprandial glucose."<br /><br />http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10774766 <br />Puddleghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00953398103675945541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8550919611653842066.post-74447231674556237022016-03-09T01:22:05.364-08:002016-03-09T01:22:05.364-08:00It makes you wonder if they decide the outcome and...It makes you wonder if they decide the outcome and then design the study to achieve it.Honorahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07998355150015018294noreply@blogger.com
