Summary

The rate of gastric emptying is proposed to be one of the major determinants of postprandial glycemia. A slower gastric emptying will thus result in a less pronounced rise in blood glucose, which is especially desirable in diabetes care as it will highly influence the overall glycemic control. The present study aims to investigate the rate of gastric emptying and postprandial blood glucose levels in response to the intake of bread with different dietary fiber-content. Though bread is one of the major sources of dietary carbohydrates in Central- and Northern Europe, the mechanism and the metabolic effects of bread consumption, however, is investigated in a limited number of studies.

Conditions
