                            In adults with metabolic syndrome, what is the impact of glycemic index/load, independent of weight loss, on lipid outcomes (HDL, TG)?- 
                                        Conclusion
                                        One feeding study reports no significant effect of glycemic index/load on triglyceride or HDL-cholesterol levels in adults with metabolic syndrome. Intervention studies are needed to ascertain an effect of glycemic index/load on lipid outcomes in adults with metabolic syndrome with or without meeting the metabolic syndrome criteria for lipid levels.

                                        - Grade I means there is Good/Strong evidence supporting the statement;
- Grade II is Fair;
- Grade III is Limited/Weak;
- Grade IV is Expert Opinion Only;
- Grade V is Not Assignable.
- High (A) means we are very confident that the true effect lies close to that of the estimate of the effect;
- Moderate (B) means we are moderately confident in the effect estimate;
- Low (C) means our confidence in the effect estimate is limited;
- Very Low (D) means we have very little confidence in the effect estimate.
- Ungraded means a grade is not assignable.

 In adults with metabolic syndrome, what is the impact of glycemic index/load, independent of weight loss, on glycemic-related outcomes (such as fasting blood glucose, random blood glucose, 2-hour post prandial blood glucose, A1C)?- 
                                        Conclusion
                                        Two feeding studies regarding the impact of glycemic index/load reported a significant decrease in postprandial glycemic outcomes in adults with metabolic syndrome. Intervention studies are needed to ascertain an effect of glycemic index/load on glycemic-related outcomes in adults with metabolic syndrome with or without meeting the metabolic syndrome criteria for impaired glucose tolerance and/or impaired fasting glucose.

                                        There were no studies identified to evaluate the impact of glycemic index/load on anthropometric outcomes in adults with metabolic syndrome.
