Introduction The glycaemic response to foods has been of concern in humans for many years, especially in the management of obesity, diabetes mellitus and cardiovascular diseases. The glycaemic index (GI) is a ranking of starchy foods based on the postprandial blood glucose response compared with the response to a 50-g glucose test load (Jenkins et al. 1981). The GI was originally introduced to ...

Cereal products exhibit a wide range of glycaemic indexes (GI), but the interaction of their different nutrients and starch digestibility on blood glucose response is not well known. The objective of this analysis was to evaluate how cereal product characteristics can contribute to GI and insulinaemic index and to the parameters describing glycaemic or insulinaemic responses (incremental AUC, m...
