Article Synopsis
- The study evaluated the impact of a paraprobiotic grape-flavored whey drink in controlling post-meal blood sugar levels in healthy individuals, using a specific heating process to deactivate the probiotics.
- Both paraprobiotic and probiotic drinks showed similar effectiveness in inhibiting enzymes linked to sugar absorption, suggesting they can help lower blood sugar spikes after meals.
- Ultimately, the paraprobiotic drink proved to maintain lower blood sugar levels similar to the control group, indicating it could be a beneficial alternative to traditional probiotic drinks for managing glycemic response.
