Resistant Starch on Glycemic Response in Older Adults
Not Applicable
Completed
- Conditions
- Hyperglycemia
- Registration Number
- NCT00676767
- Lead Sponsor
- Kansas State University
- Brief Summary
The purpose of this study was to determine how blood glucose changes after eating energy bars containing resistant starch type 4 compared with bars made with puffed wheat in healthy older adults.
- Detailed Description
To measure the blood glucose response, we collected blood samples before eating and 15, 30, 45, 60, 90 and 120 minutes after eating each bar. The incremental area under the curve was used to calculate glycemic index.
