Brief Summary

This study was an open, 4-treatment, 5-sequence, 5-day cross-over randomized design clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy of mixed grain on blood glucose, insulin and Glycemic index(GI) in healthy males.

Detailed Description

After a 12-hour fast, oral glucose or meal tolerance test was performed with blood samples drawn at time 0, 15, 30, 45, 90, 120, 150, and 180 min.

1. Serum levels of glucose, insulin, and C-peptide were analyzed by biochemical autoanalyzer. The area under the curve (AUC) changes in blood glucose were computed by the trapezoidal method.

2. Glycemic index(GI): the area under the glucose response curve after consumption of a test food divided by the area under the curve after consumption of a control food containing the same amount of carbohydrate and calculated using 50 g glucose as the reference.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
1. Glycemic index(GI) 2. Glucose, insulin AUC(incremental area under the curve) 3. C-peptide2 hour postprandial blood glucose, insulin, c-peptide

1. Glycemic index (GI) was defined as the area under the glucose response curve after consumption of a test food divided by the area under the curve after consumption of a control food containing the same amount of carbohydrate and calculated using 50 g glucose as the reference. Plasma glucose will be measured at baseline, 15, 30, 45, 60, 90, and 120 minutes post ingestion of each test solution.

GI= (incremental blood glucose area of test meal/incremental area of glucose) × 100

2. Plasma glucose and insulin will be measured at baseline, 15, 30, 45, 60, 90, 120, 180 and 240 minutes post ingestion of each test solution, and area under the curve will be calculated.

3. Plasma c-peptide will be measured at baseline, 120 minutes post ingestion of each test solution.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Homeostatic model assessment-insulin resistance(HOMA-IR), quantitative insulin sensitivity check index(QUICKI), Insulinogenic index(IGI)fasting and postprandial (different times for 30min)

1. HOMA-IR={fasting insulin(µU/㎖) x fasting glucose(m㏖/L)}/22.5

2. QUICKI=1/log(insulin 0min)-log(glucose 0min)

3. IGI=(insulin 30min-fasting insulin)/(glucose 30min-fasting glucose)
