Glycaemic Response in Relation to Gastric Emptying and Satiety in Health and Disease
… are 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 …

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
… impact of dietary 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 …

Effects of Grain Sorghum Muffin on Blood Glucose and Insulin Responses in Prediabetic Men
… have been widely reported for their potential on blood glucose control and diabetes prevention. A human study with prediabetic men was conducted to investigate the effects of sorghum starch on postprandial blood glucose and insulin levels. Grain sorghum and wheat (control) muffins containing 50 g …

Intragastric gelation of mixed soy protein isolate and alginate as well as its effect on postprandial glucose response and satiety
… consumption of the 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 …

Investigations into the Effects of Turmeric, Cinnamon and Green Tea on Glycaemic Control and Liver Enzymes
… with T2DM. Identifying food that can reduce blood glucose and insulin, and increase satiety can help in the prevention and reduction of diabetes and overweight. The aim of this research was to gain further knowledge of the role of nutritional interventions, in particular, to find functional …

Diagnosis & dietary intervention in patients with diabetic gastroparesis
… severity was determined. In Paper II, the plasma glucose response after a test meal with a LP was compared to gastric scintigraphy in diabetic subjects with and without gastroparesis and the association with GI symptom severity was evaluated. In Papers III and IV, the effects of meals with a LP or …

Process-induced changes on the functionality of oat β-glucan evaluated using a gastrointestinal simulation model
… reduction in LDL cholesterol and attenuation of postprandial blood glucose levels. Health-promoting effects of oat β-glucan are proposed to be related to its extractability, molecular weight (MW), and viscosity enhancement in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. The aim of this work was to understand …

Optimizing the food guide pyramid to increase fat oxidation in young adult men
… mixed diet containing lower GI foods would lower blood glucose and insulin levels and increase fat oxidation (FOX) compared with a diet consisting of higher GI foods. Secondly, I tested the hypothesis that variability in resting FOX would predict FOX during moderate exercise after consuming the …

Grape Extracts for Type 2 Diabetes Treatment Through Specific Inhibition of α-Glucosidase and Antioxidant Protection
… inhibitory activity in vitro and in vivo blood glucose control, oxidative stress, and inflammation associated with obesity-induced type 2 diabetes. Because intestinal α-glucosidase plays a key role in the digestion and absorption of complex carbohydrates, the inhibition of this enzyme is a …

Relationships of gastric emptying with glycaemia, insulin secretion and the incretin effect in health and type 2 diabetes
… emptying, incretin hormones (GIP and GLP-1) and postprandial glycaemic and insulinaemic responses in health and type 2 diabetes. Key themes relate to: 1) Evaluation of the relationships of ‘early’ and ‘late’ glycaemic responses with gastric emptying in subjects with normal glucose tolerance, …
