Abstract

Effects of the Oral Administration of SATIOLIPID on Metabolic Parameters in Type 2 Diabetes Patients

Highlights

  • In the treatment of overweight patients suffering from diabetes mellitus type 2, dietary factors continue to play a major role alongside drug therapy or surgical interventions

  • Studies have shown that the addition of viscous dietary fibers such as guar gum, psyllium or beta-glucan to meals can reduce postprandial glucose levels and, to a certain extent, insulin secretion [1,2,3]

  • Prior to the administration of Satiolipid, participants were screened during an 8-week run-in period for stable body weight and diabetic control

Summary

Introduction

In the treatment of overweight patients suffering from diabetes mellitus type 2, dietary factors continue to play a major role alongside drug therapy or surgical interventions. In addition to a general reduction in calorie intake, the main goals of nutritional therapy are to reduce postprandial glucose levels and compensatory insulin increases as well as to positively influence the feeling of satiety. From a dietary point of view, the fiber content of the food plays a particular role. Studies have shown that the addition of viscous dietary fibers such as guar gum, psyllium or beta-glucan to meals can reduce postprandial glucose levels and, to a certain extent, insulin secretion [1,2,3]. In studies with only one single administration of HPMC before a test meal similar effects on glucose and insulin levels could be measured as with the administration of natural dietary fibers [7,8,9].
