Brief Summary

Effect of Dietary Fiber on glucose, lipid, and mineral metabolism in patients with non insulin dependent diabetes mellitus.

Detailed Description

Two diets will be compared,a low fiber diet and a high fiber diet. These two diets will differ only in the content of total dietray fiber derived from natural food products. The diets will be identical in terms of total energy, percentage of total energy as proteins, fat and carbohydrates.
