“…42 Mattei et al compared degree of similarity of patients' diets to well-known diets such as the Mediterranean diet (using Mediterranean diet score (MeDS)), the DASH diet and the American Heart Association (AHA) diet (using AHAdiet score), and assessed their quality using the Healthy Eating Index -2005 and the Alternative Healthy Eating index 2010. 43 It was found that the Mediterranean diet had the strongest association with lower insulin levels, lower HOMA-IR values and higher levels of insulin sensitivity. A high content of homemade vegetable soups, nonprocessed home-cooked meat, oatmeal, grain legumes, fish, whole milk, and beer in the diet had the strongest association with higher insulin sensitivity.…”

“…Many researchers have found that diets with modified levels of particular FA, low-glycemic-index diets, the Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH diet), and the Mediterranean diet have positive effects. [42][43][44][45][46][47][48][49][50][51][52] The relationship between IR and the Mediterranean diet, the DASH diet and a vegetarian diet An analysis of the data obtained from the patients of the Third National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES III) showed that scores indicating the similarity of the respondents' diet to the Mediterranean diet were associated with lower BMI and waist circumference. Lower waist circumference correlated with lower glycated hemoglobin levels, fasting insulin levels and HOMA-IR index values.…”

Over the past 30 years, a significant increase in the prevalence of insulin resistance (IR) has been observed. It is associated with more frequent occurrence of impaired glucose tolerance, diabetes, excessive weight, cardiovascular diseases, and endocrine disorders. The results of current studies do not indicate a necessity to exclude dairy products from the diet of insulin-resistant individuals. In addition, it has been found that moderate amounts of alcohol as part of a balanced, low-energy diet do not have a negative effect on insulin sensitivity. The authors of recent studies emphasize the importance of reducing the intake of simple sugars, especially from sweet drinks, sweets and excessive fruit juice consuption. Many studies have demonstrated the beneficial effects of consuming complex, low-glycemic-index carbohydrates that are rich in dietary fiber. An insulin-resistant patient's diet should be rich in whole grains and high amounts of non-starchy vegetables and raw fruit. The beneficial effect of the Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH diet) and the Mediterranean diet has been confirmed. The positive correlation between low-carbohydrate and very-low-carbohydrate diets requires confirmation in long-term studies with the participation of insulinresistant patients. Research shows the benefits of increased calorific intake during the first half of the day, especially from a high-energy and low-glycemic-index breakfast. Furthermore, many researchers indicate that slow and mindful eating is a significant component of an appropriate diet for insulin-resistant individuals.

“…Beans are a source of macro and micronutrients including lysine-rich proteins, low glycaemic index carbohydrates, vitamins, minerals, fibre, and phytochemicals including polyphenols [1]. Epidemiological studies suggest that a diet including beans may be protective against cancer [6,7], diabetes [8,9] and cardiovascular diseases [10,11]. In vitro and in vivo studies have shown beneficial effects of bean polyphenols, such as anti-carcinogenic, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties [12][13][14].…”

Starch Digestion Enhances Bioaccessibility of Anti-Inflammatory Polyphenols from Borlotti Beans (Phaseolus vulgaris)

et al. 2020

The consumption of beans has been associated with chronic disease prevention which may be attributed to the polyphenols present in the seed coat and endosperm. However, their bioaccessibility is likely to be limited by interactions with bean matrix components, including starch, protein and fibre. The aim of this project was to evaluate the effect of domestic processing and enzymatic digestion on the bioaccessibility of polyphenols from Borlotti beans (Phaseolus vulgaris) and to test their anti-inflammatory properties in a macrophage cell model. In vitro digestion of cooked beans released twenty times more polyphenols (40.4 ± 2.5 mg gallic acid equivalents (GAE)/g) than domestic processing (2.22 ± 0.1 mg GAE/g), with starch digestion contributing to the highest release (30.9 ± 0.75 mg GAE/g). Fluorescence microscopy visualization of isolated bean starch suggests that polyphenols are embedded within the granule structure. LC-MS analysis showed that cooked Borlotti bean contain flavonoids, flavones and hydroxycinnamic acids, and cooked bean extracts exerted moderate anti-inflammatory effects by decreasing mRNA levels of IL1β and iNOS by 25% and 40%, respectively. In conclusion, the bioaccessibility of bean polyphenols is strongly enhanced by starch digestion. These polyphenols may contribute to the health benefits associated with bean consumption.

“…For instance, during a 43-year period (1961-1965 and 2000-2004), the availability of some food components of the traditional Mediterranean diet (olive oil, fruits, vegetables and fish) was higher in the region of Mediterranean Europe in relation to others geographical areas, including other European regions, other Mediterranean countries and countries from American continent . In addition, a study evaluating the adherence to MDP by Puerto Rican population, showed that olive oil was not the main contribution to monounsaturated fatty acid intake; the same difference was observed in relation to alcohol and wine intake (Mattei et al, 2017). A similar profile is noticed in Chile, with studies showing a low consumption of olive oil compared to Spain and Italy (Rozowski & Castillo, 2004) and a moderate adherence to the Mediterranean diet by the majority of the adult population (56%) (Echeverria et al, 2016).…”

“…Studies investigating MDP in other non-Mediterranean places, have not always shown the same results (Koyama et al, 2015;Tsivgoulis et al, 2013;Skarupski, Tangney, Li, Evans, & Morris, 2013;Veronese et al, 2016;Mattei, Sotos-Prieto, Bigornia, Noel, & Tucker, 2017). The adherence of MDP by non-Mediterranean populations has shown the influence of cultural aspects, such as the inclusion of foods that, although can be generically included in the same MDP components, are modified in terms of home preparation and/or industrial processing.…”
