Breakfast on Postprandial Hyperglycemia (B-PPHG)

April 7, 2015 updated by: Daniela Jakubowicz, MD, Hospital de Clinicas Caracas

Effect of Breakfast on Overall Postprandial Hyperglycemia in T2D

Reduction of postprandial hyperglycemia (PPHG) is a major target in the treatment of type 2 diabetes (T2D). Skipping breakfast has been consistently associated with higher HbA1c and overall PPHG in subjects with type 2 diabetes (T2D). Our aim was to explore the effect of skipping vs eating breakfast on PPHG after subsequent isocaloric (700kcal) lunch and dinner

Study Overview

Detailed Description

In type 2 diabetic individuals the omission of breakfast is associated with significant increase in HbA1C and all-day postprandial hyperglycemia even without overeating in the evening. In contrast, high-energy breakfast and low-energy dinner result in a significant reduction of all-day postprandial glycaemia Similarly, 3 months of high-energy breakfast led to a 5% reduction in HbA1C levels in type 2 diabetes participants Despite the growing evidence showing the beneficial effects of breakfast consumption on overall postprandial hyperglycemia and HbA1C levels, very little is known regarding the relationship between breakfast skipping and all-day glycemic excursions in type 2 diabetes patients. Therefore, to test whether breakfast skipping influences metabolic responses to the following meals in type 2 diabetes patients during the same day, we explored the postprandial glycemic response to identical lunch and dinner meal tests with or without breakfast.
