Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the acute effect of fructose intake on serum uric acid, plasma glucose, and insulin levels in healthy young adults.Methods:Sixty-four healthy young subjects were recruited, and randomized to 25 g, 50 g, 75 g fructose group, and 75 g glucose group( n=16) by random number table. The anthropometric parameters, blood pressure, heart rate were measured. Several biochemistry parameters were measured, which were serum uric acid, plasma glucose, plasma insulin, serum total cholesterol, triglyceride, low density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) at 0, 60, 120, and 180 min before and after ingestion of fructose or glucose. Results:(1) The serum uric acid level after fructose administration increased significantly than after glucose over 3 h, and peaked at 60 min. The increment of uric acid at 60 min and area under curve of uric acid at 3 h after fructose administration were significantly higher than those of glucose. The increment of uric acid at 60 min increased significantly as fructose dose was increased, especially in the 75 g fructose (increment rate of uric acid at 60 min in 25g, 50g, 75g fructose groups were 9.33%, 13.11%, 17.69% vs 0.75% respectively; Areas under curve of uric acid were 1 674.1±410.38, 1 598.3±417.03, 1 504.6±292.46 vs 1 434.8±328.94, P<0.01). (2) The glucose and insulin levels increased after fructose/glucose intake in four groups with top augment in glucose followed by 75 g fructose. The increase peaked at 30 min, began to decline at 120 min, and returned to fasting level at 180 min. The area under curve of insulin at glucose group was significantly higher than those among fructose groups. With the increase of fructose dose, the increment rate of glucose and insulin at 60 min also increased obviously, especially in the 75 g fructose (the increment rates of glucose at 60 min in 25 g, 50 g, 75 g fructose, 75 g glucose were 7.40%, 8.29%, 13.74%, 28.22% respectively; The increment rates of insulin at 60 min were 54.29%, 115.25%, 185.58%, 730.31% respectively, P<0.01). (3) There were no difference of cholesterol, triglyceride, and LDL-C after fructose/glucose ingestion. Conclusion:Acute fructose intake can lead to the increase of uric acid and insulin; Moreover, the increments of uric acid and insulin after fructose consumption were dependent on fructose dose.
