Background: Low-carbohydrate diets are popular nutritional therapeutics based on recommendations of the American Diabetes Association (2013). In previous reports, we suggested a new diet-intake restriction method using low-sugar, high-dietary fiber noodles containing okara and konjac and reported their effect on blood glucose levels in healthy animals and animal models of type 2 diabetes. This study aimed to compare the effect of low-sugar, high-dietary fiber noodles with that of normal wheat noodles on glycemic response in healthy adult men.
Methods: The study was a randomized, cross-over design to investigate the effects of normal wheat noodles versus low-sugar, high-dietary fiber noodles on glucose and insulin responses at 120 min. Plasma glucose and insulin levels were measured at 0, 15, 30, 45, 60, and 120 min after intake of normal wheat.. View More»
