Article Synopsis
- The study compared the effects of oligomalt, a slowly digestible carbohydrate, to maltodextrin on blood sugar and insulin response in healthy individuals, overweight/obese participants, and those with type 2 diabetes.
- Oligomalt resulted in significantly lower post-meal glucose and insulin levels across all groups, highlighting its potential benefits for blood sugar management.
- The positive outcomes suggest oligomalt could be a healthier carbohydrate option for food products aimed at improving glucometabolic health.
Impetigo is a highly contagious bacterial skin infection affecting children worldwide that is caused by the Gram-positive bacteria Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pyogenes, or both. Staphylococcus species can quickly develop drug resistance rendering mupirocin, fusidic acid, and erythromycin ineffective. Preclinical and clinical studies demonstrated that NVC-422 (N, N-dichloro-2, 2-dimethyltaurine) rapidly kills pathogens without the development of drug resistance.
