Abstract
Two isocaloric diabetic diets were compared in an eight-month crossove r trial. Thirteen noninsulin-dependent diabetic subjects (11 males, 2 females) received both a diet enriched in monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA) and one in polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA). Plasma cholester ol, HDL-cholesterol, apolipoprotein [a], Apo-A(1), Apo-B and HbA(1) we re determined at the outset and at monthly intervals. The study showed no changes in total haemoglobin A(1) nor in plasma lipid concentratio ns. It is concluded that MUFA and PUFA diets in noninsulin-dependent d iabetes are essentially equivalent in terms of glycaemia and lipidaemi a. (C) 1996, Medikal Press..
