  • This means that the rate of nonoxidative glucose disposal (ie, carbohydrate storage) increased in the postabsorptive state with the5%carbohydrate diet.

  • This research group used stable-isotope and euglycemic hyperinsulinemic clamp techniques to partition glucose disposal into oxidative and nonoxidative disposal (22).

    Discussion Forum - TuDiabetes 2010

  • Allick et al concluded that it was remarkable that, in the context of diabetes risk, 2 aspects of glucose homeostasis actually improved after consumption of the high-fat, low-carbohydrate diet: basal endogenous glucose production decreased, and insulin-stimulated nonoxidative glucose disposal increased.
