“…Dietary pulses have also been shown to lower postprandial insulin levels, which is associated with reduced salt retention and blood pressure . Finally, the observed lowering in blood pressure may be mediated through weight loss, which is supported by the results of our systematic review and meta‐analysis assessing the effect of dietary pulses on body weight …”

“…Suggested reasons for this observed CVD risk benefit may be related to specific nutrients and properties found in legumes (i.e., fiber, magnesium, potassium, folate, phytochemicals, low GI, etc. ), observed benefits of non‐soy legumes on various cardiometabolic risk factors (see below), and, potentially, the replacement of certain foods with legumes (i.e., red meat and high‐GI foods) …”

“…We have successfully conducted a series of CIHR‐funded systematic reviews and meta‐analyses of randomized controlled trials of the effect of dietary pulse consumption on the following cardiometabolic risk factors: glycemic control, lipids, adiposity, and blood pressure (http://ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier, NCT01594567). To be included, trials had to be randomized, with isocaloric comparisons between the intervention and control arms and a follow‐up duration ≥3 weeks.…”

Obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease (CVD) present important unmet prevention and treatment challenges. Dietary pulses are sustainable, affordable, and nutrient‐dense foods that have shown a wide range of health benefits in the prevention and management of these conditions. Despite these findings, recommendations for pulse intake continue to vary across chronic disease guidelines, and intake levels continue to remain low. Here, we summarize findings from recent systematic reviews and meta‐analyses assessing the relationship between dietary pulse consumption and cardiometabolic health and assess the overall strength of the evidence using the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluation tool. We conclude that systematic reviews and meta‐analyses of prospective cohort studies assessing the relationship between legumes and the risk of coronary heart disease appear to provide moderate‐quality evidence of a benefit, and several systematic reviews and meta‐analyses of randomized controlled trials assessing the effect of pulses on cardiometabolic risk factors provide low‐ to moderate‐quality evidence of a benefit. There remains an urgent need, however, for more high‐quality prospective cohort studies and large, high‐quality, randomized trials to clarify the benefits of dietary pulses in the prevention and management of overweight/obesity, diabetes, and CVD.

Depression, obesity in earlier age groups, short sleep duration, childhood abuse and low maternal education have the strongest support among proposed risk factors for obesity. Furthermore, there is no high-quality evidence to recommend treating obesity with a specific nonpharmacological and nonsurgical intervention among many available, and whatever benefits in terms of magnitude of weight loss appear small.

Effects of pulse crop types and extrusion parameters on the physicochemical properties, in vitro and in vivo starch digestibility of pet foods

et al. 2022

Background and objectives This study aimed to tackle the research gaps regarding how different pulse types and extrusion conditions influenced starch digestibility and quality attributes of extruded dry pet foods. Flours of round pea, lentil, faba bean, wrinkled pea, and rice (control) were selected to extrude dry pet foods under “mild” (C1) and “extreme” (C2) conditions. Physicochemical properties, in vitro and in vivo starch digestibility of the resulting pet foods were characterized. Findings Under both conditions, wrinkled pea pet foods showed significantly lower damaged/gelatinized‐starch contents and less molecular breakdown than other samples. For all the formulations, the C2 condition gelatinized and degraded starch to greater extents than C1. Consistent with the structural and physicochemical properties of the extrudates, wrinkled pea pet foods exhibited notably lower digestibility in both in vitro and in vivo studies than other formulations. Conclusions Both pulse types and extrusion parameters effectively impacted the quality and starch digestibility of the extruded pet foods. Wrinkled pea flours showed high amylose contents and could be a promising ingredient for producing pet foods rich in resistant starch. Significance and novelty This study revealed the interrelationships among the structures, physicochemical properties, and starch digestibility of extruded pet foods formulated with normal and high‐amylose pulse flours.
