Effect of Almond Milk Versus Cow Milk on Postprandial Glycemia, Lipidemia, and Gastrointestinal Hormones in Patients with Overweight or Obesity and Type 2 Diabetes: A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial
Almond milk does not offer any additional glycemic benefit over 2% milk and does not differ in its postprandial effects on FFAs, serum triglycerides, leptin, and gastrointestinal hormones over 4 h. Nonetheless, carbohydrate-matched 2% milk elicited greater insulin and glucagon response compared to almond milk, warranting further investigation into its long-term implications.
