Determining the Glycemic Effects of Sunflower Pasta

Summary

This study investigated the effects of five types of pasta on the glycemic responses

Conditions

• Potential Abnormality of Glucose Tolerance
• Appetitive Behavior

Interventions

OTHER

Glucose as reference food

Fifteen healthy, normal weight subjects after 10-14 hours fast, consumed 50g glucose diluted in 300ml water, tested three times, in different visits, within 5-10min. Fingertip capillary blood glucose samples and measurements from continuous glucose monitoring system were taken at baseline, 15, 30, 45, 60, 90 and 120 min.

OTHER

Tagliatella control

Fifteen healthy, normal weight subjects after 10-14 hours fast, consumed 50g available carbohydrates from tagliatella control, tested once, in different visits, within 10min. Fingertip capillary blood glucose samples and measurements from continuous glucose monitoring system were taken at baseline, 15, 30, 45, 60, 90 and 120 min.

OTHER

5% sunflower tagliatella

Fifteen healthy, normal weight subjects after 10-14 hours fast, consumed 50g available carbohydrates from 5% sunflower tagliatella, tested once, in different visits, within 10min. Fingertip capillary blood glucose samples and measurements from continuous glucose monitoring system were taken at baseline, 15, 30, 45, 60, 90 and 120 min.

OTHER

16% sunflower tagliatella

Fifteen healthy, normal weight subjects after 10-14 hours fast, consumed 50g available carbohydrates from 16% sunflower tagliatella, tested once, in different visits, within 10min. Fingertip capillary blood glucose samples and measurements from continuous glucose monitoring system were taken at baseline, 15, 30, 45, 60, 90 and 120 min.

OTHER

16% sunflower penne

Fifteen healthy, normal weight subjects after 10-14 hours fast, consumed 50g available carbohydrates from 16% sunflower penne, tested once, in different visits, within 10min. Fingertip capillary blood glucose samples and samples from continuous glucose monitoring system were taken at baseline, 15, 30, 45, 60, 90 and 120 min.

OTHER

16% sunflower fusilli

Fifteen healthy, normal weight subjects after 10-14 hours fast, consumed 50g available carbohydrates from 16% sunflower fusilli, tested once, in different visits, within 10min. Fingertip capillary blood glucose samples and measurements from continuous glucose monitoring system were taken at baseline, 15, 30, 45, 60, 90 and 120 min.
