Abstract

Therapeutic efficacy of diets including texturated soybean products (TSP) is assessed in 30 inpatients with non-insulindependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM), followed up for 28 days. TSP were well tolerated and caused no side effects. Addition of TSP to the traditional diet no. 9 improved the efficacy of correction of carbohydrate and lipid metabolism disorders in patients with NIDDM. Increased level of uric acid in the serum, observed during daily consumption of TSP for 2 weeks, requires monitoring of its levels in NIDDM patients with concomitant hyperuricaemia and gout.
