Metabolic adaptation
The number of participants with abnormal glucose tolerance decreased in high-carbohydrate groups.
High-carbohydrate diets may improve glucose tolerance in individuals transitioning from low-carbohydrate diets.
StrongSupportsmedium confidence
The number of participants with abnormal glucose tolerance by OGTT remained 10 (of 16) in VLC at start and end but decreased from 17 to 9 (of 25) in both HC groups.
