Paraprobiotic obtained by ohmic heating added in whey-grape juice drink is effective to control postprandial glycemia in healthy adults.

The effect of paraprobiotic Lacticaseibacillus casei 01 inactivated by ohmic heating (8 V/cm, 95 °C/7 min, 60 Hz) whey-grape juice drink at the postprandial glycemia was evaluated. In vitro hypoglycemic activity was assessed by the α-glucosidase and α-amylase inhibition, while in vivo activity was determined using 15 healthy subjects, which consumed bread + probiotic whey drink, bread + paraprobiotic whey drink, and bread alone as a control. The probiotic and paraprobiotic grape-flavored whey drinks showed similar α-glucosidase and α-amylase inhibition (51.
