The effect of polyphenol-rich flaxseed muffins on glycaemic, insulinaemic and 24-hour glucose response in healthy adults
… particularly through its effect on blood glucose. The main aim of this PhD was to evaluate the effect of flaxseed in different forms (whole and ground) incorporated into bakery products on the blood glucose profile of healthy individuals. Ground flaxseed produced significantly higher …

Intragastric gelation of mixed soy protein isolate and alginate as well as its effect on postprandial glucose response and satiety
… model beverages would affect postprandial blood glucose response and appetite in healthy adults. Model beverages containing 5% w/v SPI, 0 to 0.20% w/v alginate and 10% w/v sucrose were prepared by heating the mixtures at 85 ᵒC for 30 min at pH 6.0 or 7.0. Characterizations of beverages included …

In vitro starch digestibility and ex-vivo glucose response studies of Vietnamese starchy foods using Caco-2 cells and 14C radioisotope
… investigation of starch digestibility and glucose response of the most commonly consumed Vietnamese rice varieties, rice and wheat products have not been studied yet. Starchy staples were investigated for their physicochemical properties, in vitro starch digestibility and ex-vivo glucose …

Glycaemic Response in Relation to Gastric Emptying and Satiety in Health and Disease
… rich in fibre are recommended to control blood glucose levels. Gastric emptying, together with other factors, regulate the postprandial blood glucose response. A delay in the gastric emptying rate (GER) leads to a lower postprandial blood glucose concentration. However, 30-50% of diabetes …

Glycemic response to a peanut butter and cracker snack in noninsulin dependent diabetics and nondiabetics
… this study was to observe and compare the blood glucose response of individuals with documented noninsulin dependent diabetes (NIDDM) and controls after they consumed a peanut butter and cracker snack product (Austin "Toasty" crackers). Twenty-one subjects with NIDDM (15 with current NIDDM and 6 …

The acute effects of l-Leucine and l-Isoleucine on glycemic responses in healthy and inactive adults
… been shown to blunt the elevated post-prandial glucose response. It has been suggested that AA may facilitate secretion of hormones glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide (GIP) that are 50-70% responsible for regulating insulin secretion. The purpose of this …

Taurine depletion and Schwann cell dysfunction in diabetic neuropathy
… supplementation. I demonstrated that high glucose reduces TauT expression in a dose-dependent manner and that high glucose inhibited the pro-oxidant increase in TauT expression and taurine uptake. This high glucose response was ablated by inhibition of aldose reductase, nitric oxide …

Effect of Functional Starch in Brown Rice and Grain Sorghum on Plasma Glucose and Insulin Responses in Humans
… healthy-dietary carbohydrates to control blood glucose levels. Starch is a principle carbohydrate, which influences blood glucose levels, and measuring starch digestibility fractions can help predict the glucose response in the body. The objectives of this study were to investigate the …

Advancing Dynamic Imaging for Microfluidic Stimulated Tissues: Biology, Techniques, and Applications
… living pancreatic islets. We found that elevated glucose (>10 mM) decreases the ETF redox state within 20 minutes in islets when presented with a mixed nutrient condition associated with glucolipotoxicity. This observation suggests a glucose-mediated shift in lipid partitioning away from fatty …

Physicochemical and Sensory Properties of Resistant Starch-Based Cereal Products and Effects on Glycemic and Oxidative Stress Responses in Hispanic Women
… starch (RS) may be one approach to help modulate glucose and insulin responses. The purpose of this study was twofold: 1) to evaluate the physicochemical and sensory properties of cereal food products supplemented with RS. 2) to compare the effects of a single ingestion of granola bars with high …

The influence of the physical state and habitual mastication on the glycaemic response and satiety
… energy intake and energy regulation. The blood glucose response (GR) has been shown to significantly influence short term food intake and therefore energy balance. Regulating the GR is also important in diabetes and impaired glucose tolerance; conditions which are also closely linked with …

African starchy foods, gastric emptying, and starch digestion in Malian stunted children
… in cereal and tuber-rich diets, and its glycemic response profile has been associated with health-related conditions. Sorghum and millet are known to have relatively low starch digestibility, a potentially desirable property for controlling blood glucose response and providing sustained energy. …

Determination of phytochemicals in vegetable juices and their effects on postprandial glycaemia
… beetroot juice alone (225 mL) on postprandial glucose and insulin responses was then assessed to investigate a potential role for these phytochemicals in the control of diseases featuring insulin resistance as a primary symptom, such as type 2 diabetes and metabolic syndrome. Consumption of 70 …

The development of a functional food breakfast and its effects on gluco-regulation, cognitive performance, mood and satiety in adolescents
… breakfast differentially affects the metabolic response which may also have implications for cognitive performance. To date, much of the research on gluco-regulation is in adults, and no studies have investigated the effects of a functional-food breakfast (FB) on gluco-regulation and cognitive …

The effect of protein and fat meal content on the insulin requirement of type 1 diabetic children
… to determine the true post-prandial glycaemic response and total insulin need for mixed meals with known, constant carbohydrate content but different fat and protein contents, using insulin pump therapy and continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) in children with type 1diabetes. RESEARCH DESIGN AND …

Influence of dietary polyphenols on carbohydrate intestinal digestion and absorption
… rich foods and beverages may modify glycemic response, glucose homeostasis and subsequent risk of Type-2 diabetes. <em>In vitro</em> evidence typically derived from experiments with pure phenolics and phenolic rich extracts have pointed to this benefit being associated with two potential …

The role of central IL-6 signalling in the development of Type 2 Diabetes
… 2 diabetes results from a chronic disruption of glucose homeostasis as a consequence of environmental and genetic factors. The regulation of hypothalamic metabolic signalling is understood to be critical to the dynamic and long-term maintenance of glucose homeostasis by virtue of its influence on …

A novel nutritional approach to the management of type 2 diabetes: effects of nutritional preloads on postprandial blood glucose and gastric emptying in type 2 diabetes mellitus
… protein and fibre preloads on postprandial blood glucose and gastric emptying in type 2 diabetes mellitus. Key themes relate to: 1) The longitudinal evaluation of gastric emptying in type 2 diabetes 2) The evaluation of gastric emptying as measured by means of a ¹³C-octanoic acid breath test in …
