Summary

This crossover study aims to determine and compare the glycemic index (GI) and glycemic load (GL) of different melon varieties in healthy adults. Using glucose as the reference food, participants will consume test portions of each melon variety containing equivalent amounts of available carbohydrates.

Conditions

  • Glycemic Index
  • Glycemic Load

Interventions

OTHER

Orange candy melon (Cucumis melo)

Participants will consume a portion of melon A containing 50g of available carbohydrates to evaluate postprandial glycemic response.

OTHER

Rock melon ( Cucumis melo var.cantalupensis)

Participants will consume a portion of melon B containing 50g of available carbohydrates to evaluate postprandial glycemic response.

OTHER

honey dew (cucumis melo L.)

Participants will consume a portion of melon C containing 50g of available carbohydrates to evaluate postprandial glycemic response.
