- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method The primary efficacy outcome for this study is reduction in postprandial blood glucose level over stipulated time points (30, 60, 90, 120, and 180 minutes) form baseline (0 min). This parameter is considered one of the standards for the determination of blood glucose control.Timepoint: 0, 30, 60, 90, 120, and 180 minutes
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method The secondary efficacy outcome for this study is change in insulin level over stipulated time points (30, 60, 90, 120, and 180 minutes) from baseline (0 min) and triglycerides level at 120 min from fasting state as the intake of any food product is directly related the lipid content. Also subjective sensations of hunger, satiety, and other appetite sensations will be assessed for the patients using a VAS questionnaire.Timepoint: 0, 30, 60, 120 and 180 minutes.
