Brief Summary

Consumption of nutritional supplements with low glycemic carbohydrates induce favorable glycemic responses in subjects with type 2 diabetes. The aim of this study was to compare the effect of the intake of specific formulas for diabetes, with different types of carbohydrates (isomaltulose and sucromaltose) on the glycemic response, release of intestinal peptides and subjective appetite in Type 2 diabetic individuals. In a randomized, double-blind, cross-over study of 4 treatments, 16 subjects (56.60 ± 1.11 years). Fasting blood samples were taking, after that they were given to consume formula or reference product assigned randomly. Subsequently, samples of capillary and venous blood were obtained at times 30, 60, 90, 120 and 180 min, after the start of consumption of the experimental beverage for the measurement of glucose, insulin, gastric inhibitory peptide (GIP) and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1). The assessment of subjective appetite was measured by Visual Analogue Scale (VAS).

Detailed Description

This was a randomized, double-blind, cross-over study of 4 treatments that was conducted according to the Good Clinical Practice Guidelines, with all applicable Food and Drug privacy regulations, and ethical principles based on the Declaration of Helsinki. Participants signed informed consent, approved by the Human Research Ethics Committee of the Endocrine-Metabolic Research Center of the University of Zulia, in Venezuela. All selected subjects attended a first visit, in order to determine if they met the inclusion criteria, those who gathered them, were subjected to four consumption tests to determine the glycemic index (GI) and glycemic load (GL) and 3 consumption tests for the evaluation of subjective appetite. Each treatment or consumption session was carried out on different days.
