Metabolic acidosis may contribute to the development of insulin resistance. To date, there have been no population-based studies of acid-base status and insulin resistance. We examined the cross-sectional relations between serum bicarbonate, anion gap, and insulin resistance in a subset of healthy participants in the 1999-2000 and 2001-2002 National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys.

    Overfeeding led to weight gain and changes in the serum lipid profile. Increases in ceramides were noted, which left unchecked may promote systemic insulin resistance. Uniform increases were observed in plasmalogens and their precursors. Since plasmalogens are powerful antioxidants, this may be an a...

    Compared to the S-DJB group, DJB induced significant and sustained glycemic control with improved insulin sensitivity and glucose tolerance independently of weight loss. DJB improved the lipid metabolism by decreasing fasting free fatty acids and triglycerides. Serum leptin and IL-6 significantly de...
