Journal ArticleDOI

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

TL;DR: 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.
Journal ArticleDOI

The glycemic index: methodology and clinical implications

TL;DR: In long-term trials, low-GI diets result in modest improvements in overall blood glucose control in patients with insulin-dependent and non-insulin-dependent diabetes and the ability of low- GI diets to reduce insulin secretion and lower blood lipid concentrations in patientswith hypertriglyceridemia is of greater therapeutic importance.
Journal ArticleDOI

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

TL;DR: Viscous types of dietary fibre are most likely to be therapeutically useful in modifying postprandial hyperglycaemia.
Journal ArticleDOI

Glycaemic index methodology.

TL;DR: The present review discusses the most relevant methodological considerations and highlights specific recommendations regarding number of subjects, sex, subject status, inclusion and exclusion criteria, pre-test conditions, CHO test dose, blood sampling procedures, sampling times, test randomisation and calculation of glycaemic response area under the curve.
Journal ArticleDOI

The use of the glycemic index in predicting the blood glucose response to mixed meals.

TL;DR: How data may be analyzed to make use of the GI values of individual foods to predict the GI of mixed meals is demonstrated.
