A total of 64 male obese subjects were randomized to observe the effect of 40 g of walnut in daily breakfast on lipid profile and Body Mass Index (BMI), total Cholesterol (CHO), Triglyceride (TG) High Density Lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol and Low Density Lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol in obese male subjects of various ethnics i.e. Baloch (B), Pathan (P), Hazara (H) and Punjabi (PU) residing in Quetta region of Balochistan for this purpose four weeks controlled study was designed. A batch of 32 obese male subjects 8 from each ethnic group as a control and another batch of 32 obese males 8 from each ethnic group as treated were selected. Twelve hour fasting blood samples a day after stoppage of walnut were taken from obese control and obese treated subjects. Daily walnut consumption in obese male subjects evidently demonstrated reduced BMI in all ethnic groups. Walnut supplementation in obese exhibited significant reduction in cholesterol level in Baloch (P < 0.001) and Punjabi (P < 0.01) males. There was profound and statistically significant [B (P < 0.05), P (P < 0.05), H (P < 0.01) and PU (P < 0.05)] elevation in HDL-C in all male ethnic groups. In male sub-population LDL-C was significantly [P (P < 0.01), H (P < 0.001) and PU (P < 0.05)] reduced in these groups. In these subjects walnut supplementation showed pronounced reduction [B (P < 0.001), P (P < 0.05), H (P < 0.001) and PU (P < 0.001)] in triglyceride levels. The constructive influence of walnut on lipid profile suggests that walnut rich diet may have advantageous effects beyond changes in plasma lipid level.

“…Diabetes control remained good, with HbA 1c ϳ6.7%, which is well below the point at which insulin therapy may be instigated (ϳ9%) and bearing in mind that nut supplementation is not likely to effect glucose homeostasis (19). The increase in dietary PUFA, however, has been a concern for antioxidant status in diabetes (12), but blood levels of antioxidants in people with diabetes appear related to serum lipids, not dietary intake, with products of oxidative damage more linked to intakes of SFA and cholesterol and to levels of endogenous antioxidants (44).…”

“…Nuts provide substantial amounts of dietary PUFA, and nut consumption is inversely associated with the risk of type 2 diabetes in women (18). There is no net effect on glucose homeostasis from nut supplementation, but more interestingly, no net weight gain when nuts were used as a replacement food (19). In subjects with dyslipidemia (total cholesterol Ͼ5.17; LDL Ͼ3.36; triglycerides Ͼ2.26 mmol/l), a low-fat diet supplemented with walnuts was found to reduce total cholesterol compared with a habitual or low-fat diet, and LDL compared with a low-fat diet alone (20), with no differential effects on tri-glyceride levels.…”

Including Walnuts in a Low-Fat/Modified-Fat Diet Improves HDL Cholesterol-to-Total Cholesterol Ratios in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes

OBJECTIVE -The aim of this study was to examine the effect of a moderate-fat diet inclusive of walnuts on blood lipid profiles in patients with type 2 diabetes.RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS -This was a parallel randomized controlled trial comparing three dietary advice groups each with 30% energy as fat: low fat, modified low fat, and modified low fat inclusive of 30 g of walnuts per day. Fifty-eight men and women, mean age 59.3 Ϯ 8.1 years, started the trial. Dietary advice was given at baseline with monthly follow-up and fortnightly phone calls for support. Body weight, percent body fat, blood lipids, HbA 1c , total antioxidant capacity, and erythrocyte fatty acid levels were measured at 0, 3, and 6 months. Data were assessed by repeated-measures ANOVA with an intention-to-treat model. RESULTS -The walnut group achieved a significantly greater increase in HDL cholesterolto-total cholesterol ratio (P ϭ 0.049) and HDL (P ϭ 0.046) than the two other treatment groups. A 10% reduction in LDL cholesterol was also achieved in the walnut group, reflecting a significant effect by group (P ϭ 0.032) and time (P ϭ 0.036). There were no significant differences between groups for changes in body weight, percent body fat, total antioxidant capacity, or HbA 1c levels. The higher dietary polyunsaturated fat-to-saturated fat ratio and intakes of -3 fatty acids in the walnut group were confirmed by erythrocyte biomarkers of dietary intake.CONCLUSIONS -Structured "whole of diet" advice that included 30 g of walnuts/day delivering substantial amounts of polyunsaturated fatty acid improved the lipid profile of patients with type 2 diabetes. The literature on recommendations varies to a minor degree, and cultural differences may have an influence (9), but a total fat level of Յ30% energy (10) and Ͻ10% saturated fat is reasonably well accepted (11,12). There is some concern that PUFAs are more susceptible to oxidation and therefore may be more atherogenic (11), so a level of Ͻ10% energy for PUFAs is seen with greater flexibility in the proportions of carbohydrate and MUFA (13). Within the PUFA fraction of the diet, the ratio of -6 to -3 fatty acids is also considered (9) with daily recommendations for a 2,000-kcal diet of 0.65 g for the long-chain -3s (EPA ϩ DHA) and 2.22 g for ALA (14) and the -6 -to--3 ratio reduced to substantially Ͻ10 (14a). Diabetes CareFish are the major source of EPA ϩ DHA, but fish oil supplements produce a decreased oxidative stability of plasma LDL (15,16). In contrast, consumption of fish itself may be protective against type 2 diabetes (17). Nuts provide substantial amounts of dietary PUFA, and nut consumption is inversely associated with the risk of type 2 diabetes in women (18). There is no net effect on glucose homeostasis from nut supplementation, but more interestingly, no net weight gain when nuts were used as a replacement food (19). In subjects with dyslipidemia (total cholesterol Ͼ5.17; LDL Ͼ3.36; triglycerides Ͼ2.26 mmol/l), a low-fat diet supplemented with walnuts was found to reduce total choles...

“…Nuts do not appear to have a detrimental effect on glucose homeostasis and hence may offer protection against insulin resistance. Several intervention studies in normal, hyperlipidaemic and diabetic subjects have demonstrated the cholesterol-lowering effects of groundnuts (legume peanuts) and tree nuts, when consumed regularly at a level of 1oz or more [11]. When using the Consignment system, partners are sending products within a month, and if the payment time has arrived, partner is entitled to charge to the customer (customer).…”
