The Identifying the dynamic metabolome of the individual in response to a particular stimulus using a metabolomic approach is an emerging research area. Measuring the postprandial metabolite response utilising a meal-challenge test (MCT) provides information beyond the fasting state, which is especially important since human beings spend most of their time in the postprandial state. This is pertinent as an excessive rise in postprandial glycaemia is common in individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), which puts them at a high risk of developing cardiovascular disease (CVD). While a low glycaemic index (GI) meal improves postprandial glycaemia and insulin levels in MCT studies among individuals with T2DM, its effect on metabolite changes in the postprandial state is unclear. This review summarises the perturbation in postprandial metabolites following a low GI meal in comparison to that following a usual or high GI meal and maps the metabolites in their metabolic pathways. We undertook a literature review using electronic databases, with the Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) terms, to retrieve relevant studies based on specific criteria. A total of seven related studies were documented. For the majority of metabolites studied, it was identified that metabolic regulation following an MCT extends beyond the glucose pathway. Altered metabolic pathways after the consumption of a low GI meal include: i) essential amino acid metabolism by altering the levels of plasma phenylalanine, tyrosine, lysine, leucine, isoleucine and valine; ii) glycolysis and tricarboxylic acid (TCA) metabolism by altering citrate and alanine, and iii) gut microbiota metabolism by altering betaine and acetate. The altered metabolites regulated the pancreatic insulin secretion and related to other dietary factors beyond GI modifications. These metabolomics data need to be interpreted cautiously because the metabolic changes analysed might not be due to the beneficial effects of a low GI meal. Validation of the putative metabolomic biomarkers following a dietary intervention MCT is suggested because researchers need to fully understand the kinetics and metabolism of individuals metabolite before reaching a solid conclusion. Further research characterising the metabotype based on habitual dietary patterns is warranted. |
