The glycemic index (GI) is a measure of the postprandial glucose response (PPGR) to food items, and load (GL) PPGR diet. For those who need maintain healthy diet, it beneficial regulate appropriate levels blood glucose. In reality, what influences meal GI or GL depends on macronutrient composition physical chemistry reactions in vivo. Thus, we investigated whether different macronutrients significantly affect validity calculated values for mixed meals.12 subjects (6 male, 6 female) were recruited at campus setting, consumed total test meals one by one, each morning between 8:00 8:30 am after 12 h fasting. was measured serial finger pricks performed indicated times. Test included 1) 68 g oral glucose, 2) 210 rice, 3) rice plus 170 egg white (RE), 4) 200 bean sprouts (RS), 5) 10 oil (RO), 6) plus, white, sprouts, (RESO). incremental area under curve (iAUC) assess PPGR. Mixed based nutrients meals.The iAUC all containing two (RS, RO, RE) not from iAUC, whereas, RESO (2,237.5 ± 264.9) lower (P < 0.05). meal's actual study 0.05).The three (RESO) decreased individuals, leading than derived nutrient-based calculations. consuming various regulating
