“…Some gut satiety hormones that is released as response to diet composition, including glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), Peptide YY (PYY), and ghrelin, are proposed for weight reduction. 22 In this study, we showed that oligofructose-enriched inulin supplementation for 8 weeks reduced FPG, HbA1c, TC, LDL-c, TC/ HDL-c ratio and LDL-c/ HDLc ratio, but could not significantly affect TG and HDL-c levels compared to maltodextrin group. Nassar and colleagues 7 reported that inulin resulted in significant decrease in serum glucose, insulin, insulin resistance, TC, TG, LDL-c and significant increase in HDL-c. Garcia and colleagues 23 reported that 5 weeks supplementation with inulin was resulted in 8% decrease in LDL-c. Bonsu and colleagues 24 did not find significant effect of inulin on serum lipid and serum glucose concentrations.…”
