Book: Fit with Sugar, by Dr Johannes Coy
Dr Coy has written several books about cancer nutrition. His latest book, Fit with Sugar, is now available. In this book, you’ll discover the evolutionary role of sugar in the human body. Consuming too much conventional sugar isn’t good for our health, but with the right sugars, we can stop cell ageing, keep the brain fit, protect against diseases and switch on fat burning. Find out how you can maintain physical and mental performance using natural low- glycaemic sugars and sugar substitutes. The book includes many delicious recipes for cakes, snacks and desserts, so you can implement a sugar-conscious diet easily and intelligently, without giving up sweet treats.

All sugars are not alike: Isomaltulose better than table sugar for type 2 diabetes patients
Like sucrose (table sugar), the natural disaccharide isomaltulose (PalatinoseTM) consists of glucose and fructose, but it is apparently more suitable for people with type 2 diabetes with regard to regulating blood glucose levels. The favorable metabolic effect of isomaltulose is due to the almost opposing release profiles of the gut hormones GLP-1 and GIP, a new study shows.
Novel findings on the metabolic effects of the low glycaemic carbohydrate isomaltulose (Palatinose)
This study included three human intervention trials to investigate the physiological characteristics of isomaltulose (iso). The results showed that iso is effectively absorbed from the small intestine, regardless of the food matrix, and provides a prolonged delivery of blood glucose. It was found to have lower postprandial blood glucose and insulin responses compared to sucrose. Regular consumption of iso within a Western-type diet was well tolerated and did not affect blood lipids in individuals with hyperlipidemia. Although no significant differences were observed compared to sucrose after the 4-week intervention, iso shows promise as a carbohydrate option for individuals at risk of vascular diseases.
