摘要
Background This prospective, randomized, controlled study was designed to investigate the effects of a diabetes specific formula (Diason low energy: 313.8 k J/100 ml), compared with a standard formula, on insulin sensitivity, serum C peptide, serum lipids and free fatty acid (FFA) in type 2 diabetics. Methods In total of 71 type 2 diabetics completed the study. Enteral formulas were given orally as the sole source of nutrition to the subjects for 6 days. Venous blood samples (0.5, 1, 2, 3 hours) were collected at day -7 after a 75 g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), day 1 after a standard test meal (1673.6 k J) and after 6 days of either the test diabetes specific formula or a standard formula. Plasma glucose, serum insulin, C peptide and lipids were.measured. Results After the intervention period, the diabetes specific formula resulted in a significantly lower postprandial rise in blood glucose concentrations at 0.5 hour (P 〈0.05) and 1 hour (P 〈0.01); significantly lower peak height of plasma glucose (P=0.05); significantly lower plasma insulin concentrations at 0.5 hour (P〈0.01), 1 hour (P〈0.01) and 2 hours (P 〈0.01); and a significantly lower plasma insulin peak compared to controls; both OGTT and a standard test meal (P 〈0.05). The glucose and insulin area under the curve after the diabetes specific formula compared to the standard formula were significantly lower. The C peptide level was lower after 6 days of both nutrition formulas compare to 75 g OGTT, but not different from the standard mixed meal. Both formulas were well tolerated. Conclusions In summary the diabetes specific formula with a relatively high monounsaturated fatty acid and high multi fiber proportion significantly improved glycemic control. On top of this, the insulin sensitivity (HOMA-IS) was significantly improved and may therefore directly improve the impact on long term complications.
