Glycemic and Cardiometabolic Effects of Rare Sugars Allulose and Tagatose: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Controlled Human Intervention Trials
Key Points
To assess the effects of rare sugars allulose and tagatose on glycemic and cardiometabolic parameters.
Conducted a systematic review of controlled human intervention trials
Analyzed data from multiple studies to estimate combined effects
Focused on glycemic and cardiometabolic outcomes
Allulose and tagatose significantly reduce glycemic levels
Improvements observed in cardiometabolic markers
Findings imply potential benefits for dietary interventions
