The effects of long-term almond consumption on whole-body insulin sensitivity, postprandial glucose responses, and 48  h continuous glucose concentrations in males and females with prediabetes: a randomized controlled trial

ConclusionsIn participants with prediabetes, long-term almond consumption showed adverse effects on insulin sensitivity and glucose metabolism. As almonds seemed not to have fully replaced other food items, it might be necessary to provide more supporting guidelines on how to incorporate energy-dense nuts into healthy diets to prevent type 2 diabetes development.Clinical Trial RegistrationThis clinical trial was registered in February 2018 as NCT03419702.
