Development of Low Glycemic Index Foods and Their Glucose Response in Young Healthy Non-Diabetic Subjects.

Development of low glycemic-foods is important in the prevention and management of type 2 diabetes. In this context, we prepared four test foods (TFs) (two mixed mini-meals and two breakfast items) with low glycemic-components and assessed their glycemic index (GI) in young healthy non-diabetic volunteers with mean age of 29 yr, body mass index of 24 kg/m, and fasting plasma glucose levels less than 4.62 mmol/L.
