Abstract | OBJECTIVE: METHODS: Participants were randomized to consume either the LC or LF diet during a first hospital admission and the second diet during a subsequent admission. Blood samples were obtained after overnight fasting and 1 hour after a mixed meal. RESULTS: Relative to subjects consuming the LF diet, subjects consuming the LC diet had: lower postprandial insulin concentrations (P = 0.02); higher fasting GLP-1 AND GIP concentrations and increased postprandial GLP-1 (P < 0.02); reduced ratio of fasting ghrelin to GLP-1 (P = 0.0078); increased FFA and fatty acid oxidation, as assessed by concentrations of even-chain acylcarnitines (P < 0.001); lower fasting TG and TG/HDL ratio (P < 0.01); and higher concentrations of branch chain amino acids (P < 0.01). There were no changes in glucose, PYY, or adiponectin. CRP, AST and ALT were all higher (P < 0.01) on the LC diet. CONCLUSIONS: Increases in GLP-1 with low carbohydrate feeding and reductions in the ratio of ghrelin to GLP-1 might limit food intake and improve glycaemic control in PWS. Other potential benefits of carbohydrate restriction may include fat mobilization and oxidation and reductions in the TG/HDL ratio, a marker of insulin resistance. However, increases in CRP, AST and ALT necessitate longer-term studies of low carbohydrate efficacy and safety.
