Brief Summary:
The aim of the study is to compare Diabetec® Fibre Grains (FIbre Grains) in a mixed meal setting with Jasmine rice. This is to see whether partial replacement of white rice with Fibre Grains can reduce postprandial blood glucose control.
Detailed Description:
Lifestyle modification, in particular adopting an appropriate dietary pattern, is generally accepted as the cornerstone for the treatment of people with type 2 diabetes. Consumption of low GI food has shown to improve glycemic control, lipid profile and reduce systemic inflammation. However, there are few dietary intervention studies attempting to change the GI of food by changing the staple carbohydrates. In this study, formulated rice with special fibre enrichment, Fibre Grains, was used to replace rice as the staple carbohydrates in one's diet. This fibre enriched rice has been previously tested to have a lower GI than normal rice while still able to preserve all the sensory characteristics of normal rice. With rice being a staple to Asians, this specially formulated fibre enriched rice offers a lower GI alternative to the conventional rice without affecting the people dietary preference.
