Longer-Term Nut Consumption Improves Brain Insulin Sensitivity, New Study Finds

Retrieved on: 
Tuesday, January 16, 2024

BARCELONA, Spain, Jan. 16, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Results from a recent INC-funded intervention study were published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition [1]. The study showed that for older adults with overweight or obesity, longer-term consumption of mixed nuts significantly improved brain insulin sensitivity. This may be important for the prevention of age-related metabolic and cognitive diseases.

Key Points: 
  • The study showed that for older adults with overweight or obesity, longer-term consumption of mixed nuts significantly improved brain insulin sensitivity.
  • Cerebral blood flow (CBF) was quantified using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), while brain insulin sensitivity was assessed by measuring regional CBF responses to intranasal insulin.
  • The study found that nut consumption significantly improved insulin action in (occipital and frontal) brain regions involved in the modulation of metabolic and cognitive processes.
  • However, intrahepatic lipid content, serum LDL ('bad') cholesterol and systolic blood pressure were lower following nut consumption compared to the control period.
