Brief Summary

Glycemic index concept is widely used to determine impact of a food to blood glucose. Several studies showed that water content and intake after meal may influence glycemic response of the meal and thus have an effect on the result of GI measurement. Currently these studies found conflicting results. Therefore, this study aims to determine whether water intake, specifically after meal, may influence the glycemic response and glycemic index value of the meal.

Detailed Description

Glycemic index methods are performed according to Food and Agricultural Organization/WHO recommendations.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
2 h postprandial blood glucose level (Glycemic Response)fasting 0 min, 15 min, 30 min, 45 min, 60 min, 90 min, 120 min
Glycemic index value of meal (white bread)fasting 0 min, 15 min, 30 min, 45 min, 60 min, 90 min, 120 min

The glycemic index is a calculated from measurements of area under the glucose curve after the food is eaten, divided by the corresponding area after the control food is eaten. The value is multiplied by 100 to represent a percentage of the reference food.
