摘要：Metabolic clearance rate of insulin (MCRI) is thought to help maintain glucose homeostasis even in healthy subjects. However, the effect of a low carbohydrate/high fat (LCHF) diet on MCRI in healthy subject remains unclear. To investigate the effect of a 3-day eucaloric LCHF diet on MCRI in healthy subjects, we studied 42 healthy non-obese Japanese men. Each subject consumed a eucaloric LCHF diet for 3 days. Before and after the LCHF diet, intramyocellular lipid (IMCL) levels were measured using 1 H-magnetic resonance spectroscopy, and glucose infusion rate (GIR) and MCRI were evaluated with a euglycemic hyperinsulinemic clamp. The LCHF diet increased MCRI by 10% and decreased steady state serum insulin (SS SI ) and GIR during glucose clamp by 10% and 6%, respectively. To further investigate the role of MCRI, we divided subjects into high-responder (HR) and low-responder (LR) groups based on the median %change in MCRI. The LCHF diet increased IMCL and decreased SS SI during glucose clamp in the HR group, while those were not altered in the LR group. Our results suggested that a 3-day eucaloric LCHF diet increases MCRI in healthy non-obese Japanese men. This change seemed to be beneficial in terms of maintaining euglycemia during low carbohydrate availability.
