A new study found that two very different eating patterns shared a nutritional problem: inadequate fiber intake. Among 64 adults preparing for weight-loss surgery, approximately 83% consumed less fiber than recommended, regardless of their broader dietary profile. The Concordia University findings, publicized October 13, also revealed something unexpected. Participants who consumed more calories, fats, sugars, and nutrients showed no statistically significant differences in several heart and metabolic health markers compared with those consuming less.

Researchers identified two dietary profiles. One featured higher consumption of sugar, fat, and overall nutrients. The other contained fewer vitamins and less fiber. "The high sugar and high fat group might be eating more fatty food like beef as opposed to chicken, or even putting more sugar in their coffee," said Concordia professor Simon Bacon, PhD.

Continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) could transform diabetes management for millions of Americans with type 2 diabetes who don't take insulin, according to findings published in the New England Journal of Medicine. The clinical trial found that adults using CGMs spent approximately five additional hours each day within their target blood sugar range compared with those receiving routine care. Nearly twice as many CGM users also achieved an A1c level below 7%, a common treatment goal for people with diabetes.
