Talk:Macronutrient preload

This page should not be speedy deleted because...[edit]

The term nutrient preload is relatively frequently used in the medical literature. Searching Pubmed using this word leads e.g. to more than 300 articles. The term macronutrient preload is a highly relevant part in this context. An overwhelming amount of data shows that nutrients induce the so called Incretin response (including GLP-1) and that this response increases satiety and reduces meal induced increments of glucose. In fact, agents mimicking GLP-1 represent a new and important class of anti-diabetic drugs. Conceptually, macronutrient preloads do affect metabolism as described in the Article and this has been established in the medical literature Dosage, duration and composition are important factors for effects of macronutrient preloads (as it is for any medical treatment). It is appropriate to not discuss this aspect in the Wikipedia article. In conclusion macronutrient preload is a concept that definitely has a place in Wikipedia and the text adequately informs the reader of this concept Gunnar norstedt (talk) 13:44, 4 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Expert attention[edit]

This article appears to draw exclusively on primary research, rather than on review articles, as preferred by WP:MEDRS. Therefore, any conclusions drawn about the effectiveness of this diet might well be considered original research. I'd like an expert from WP:WikiProject Medicine to weigh in on this matter.

Yeah, it was crap. I've taken it back to the metal in the hope some stronger sources can be found to rebuild something that's okay. Alexbrn (talk) 07:33, 19 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
