Adequate control of postprandial blood glucose levels is an important component of
overall blood glucose management (

,
(2)
). Diabetes snack bars designed to slow the rate of carbohydrate digestion and absorption
may be useful in lowering postprandial blood glucose levels and potentially improving
glycemic control. This study evaluated the acute effects of ingestion of equivalent
quantities of resistant starch and fully digestible starch, as part of a snack bar,
on postprandial blood glucose and insulin levels in subjects with type 2 diabetes.To read this article in full you will need to make a payment
