Outline of Final Research Achievements

In order to elucidate the cause of impaired glucose tolerance frequently occurred in young women, we examined whether insulin secretion ability is decreased by carbohydrate restriction.
Twenty-six healthy young women participated as subjects in a three-month open intervention trial taking 30% low-carbohydrate diet. We compared the results of 75 g OGTT before and after the intervention.
The insulin 30 minute value and the insulin inogenic index at 75 g OGTT decreased significantly. However, insulin sensitivity index was significantly increased and there was no significant difference in plasma glucose. As a result of examination using a generalized linear model, the factor affecting insulin secretion was only a decrease in carbohydrate intake. It was suggested that the low carbohydrate diet for 3 months reduced insulin secretion ability.
