Wheatgrasss (Triticum aestivum) the young green plant which grows to produce the cereal grain is one of the "functional foods" that is gaining popularity as a potential nutritional product with medical and health benefits. However, no in-depth controlled clinical trials have been conducted to study the therapeutic effect of wheatgrass. A study was planned to determine the glycemic and lipemic response of wheatgrass incorporated recipes. For the study 30 normal healthy female subjects were…

GLYCEMIC AND LIPEMIC RESPONSES OF SELECTED SPIRULINA- SUPPLEMENTED RICE-BASED RECIPES IN NORMAL SUBJECTS

The glycemic index (Gl) was determined in 30 healthy subjects who were fed 50g carbohydrate portions of five rice based recipes namely, plain rice, a combination of rice - legume (green peas, green peas and red gram dal), and vegetable pulao (rice and vegetables) with curd.

Glycemic index of foods: a physiological basis for carbohydrate exchange.

The effect of different foods on the blood glucose levels was fed individually to groups of 5 to 10 healthy fasting volunteers, and a significant negative relationship was seen between fat and protein and postprandial glucose rise but not with fiber or sugar content.

[Glycemic index of foods].

The glycaemic index classification provides an approach of the diabetic diet based on the glucose response to foods and could significantly improve the quality of life of diabetic patients.

Glycaemic index of conventional carbohydrate meals

The glycaemic index (GI) and the triacylglycerol response were measured in thirty non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus patients given 50 g portions of five different conventional Indian meals…

Effect of starch structure on glucose and insulin responses in adults.

The sustained plasma glucose levels after the amylose meal with reduced insulin requirement suggestAmylose starch may be of potential benefit to carbohydrate-sensitive or diabetic individuals.

Dietary fibres, fibre analogues, and glucose tolerance: importance of viscosity.

Viscous types of dietary fibre are most likely to be therapeutically useful in modifying postprandial hyperglycaemia.

Effect of protein dose on serum glucose and insulin response to sugars.

The data support previous studies showing a blood glucose moderating and insulin-enhancing effect of protein ingestion and help clarify the effects of protein on insulin and glucose response to sugars.

Insulin resistance and non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus: cellular and molecular mechanisms.

Receptors isolated from patients with non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus have compromised autophosphorylation-kinase activity when isolated from adipocytes, liver, erythrocytes, and skeletal muscle, indicating the secondary nature of the defect.
