A legume-based hypocaloric diet reduces proinflammatory status and improves metabolic features in overweight/obese subjects

Abstract: The consumption of legumes (4 servings/week) within a hypocaloric diet resulted in a specific reduction in proinflammatory markers, such as CRP and C3 and a clinically significant improvement of some metabolic features (lipid profile and BP) in overweight/ obese subjects, which were in some cases independent from weight loss.

“…Both interventions have been shown to reduce the expression and synthesis of pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-6 and TNF-α) and decrease other inflammatory markers such as C-reactive protein (CRP). [10][11][12] In addition, previous studies have confirmed that high-fat meals reduce leptin concentrations and increase the activation of inflammatory markers such as IL-6 during the postprandial phase. 13,14 In fact, fatty acids can directly or indirectly modify immune and inflammatory responses.…”

“…The effect between the intervention and the control diets did not differ significantly (mean difference −0.09 mmol/L, 95% CI −0.19 to 0.00 mmol/L); however, inter-study heterogeneity was very high (I 2 = 98%). Sensitivity analy- Zhang et al 32 ses showed that the pooled effect size became significant when any of the 6 trials that favoured the effect of the control diet 6,8,22,23,26,38 was removed. The use of a correlation coefficient of 0.25 did not alter conclusions, but a correlation coefficient of 0.75 resulted in a significant reduction in non-HDL cholesterol favouring the dietary pulse intervention.…”

“…The energy-restricted period resulted in an expected and marked improvement of blood lipids, blood pressure, and hsCRP as a marker for inflammation. 23 Caloric restriction is known to be a strong activator of protective metabolic pathways, thereby leading to lower blood pressure, improved blood lipids, and reduced inflammatory markers, including hsCRP. 24 -28 However, little is known about the effects of subsequent non-energy-restricted diets varying in protein content and glycemic index on these end points.…”
