Abstract:

Introduction: Glycemic index (GI), glycemic load (GL), and satiety index (SI) are important factors in metabolic diseases, particularly diabetes and obesity. This study aimed to investigate the effects of barley flour on the GI, GL, and SI of white bread. Materials and Methods: To determine GI, ten healthy individuals were examined on four different days within one-week intervals. The blood sugar level was measured during fasting and 15, 30, 45, 60, 90, and 120 minutes after receiving the glucose solution, white bread, and bread containing 25% and 50% barley flour. Also, to determine SI, a total of 20 healthy individuals were examined on three different days within one-week intervals. SI was measured using the visual analog scale (VAS) during fasting and every 15 minutes for the next two hours. Results: The GI and GL of 25% barley bread were 81.79 and 13.80, respectively. On the other hand, the GI of 50% barley bread (59.16) was in the moderate range and significantly lower than that of white bread (91.98) (P=0.03). Based on the results, the SI of both 25% barley bread (425.82) (P=0.04) and 50% barley bread (968.26) (P=0.02) was significantly higher than that of white bread. Conclusion: The addition of barley flour to bread not only reduced the GI and GL, but also substantially increased the SI of white bread.

Effects of Adding Date Seed Flour to White Flour on Glycemic Index and Satiety Index of White Bread

Introduction: Foods with low glycemic index (GI) and high satiety index (SI) have been associated with decreased risk of chronic diseases and obesity. This study investigated the effect of date seed flour (DSF) on the GI, glycemic load (GL), and SI of white bread (WB). Materials and Methods: Ten healthy subjects were examined on four different days within 3-6 days intervals to determine GI and ...

A Review of the Relationship between Dietary Glycemic Index and Glycemic Load and Type 2 Diabetes

Background: In recent decades, studies on type 2 diabetes (T2D), have adopted a new approach to the field of a more complete collection of variables related to the lifestyles and diet of people. Diet is an important factor in increasing the rate of T2D among individuals. Considering the consumption of a high-carbohydrate diet, little attention has been paid to the type of carbohydrates consumed...

Pnm-28: Dietary Glycemic Index, Glycemic Load, and The Risk of Endometrial Cancer

Background Endometrial cancer is a hormone-dependent disease and has been consistently associated with obesity. Non genetic lifestyle factors may account for more than 75% of endometrial cancer cases and represent potential targets for prevention of this disease. Insulin resistance induced by diet may play a particularly pernicious role in the development of endometrial cancer, possibly by redu...

Glycemic index, glycemic load and cancer risk.

BACKGROUND Dietary glycemic index (GI) and glycemic load (GL) have been related to the risk of selected cancers, but the issue remains open. PATIENTS AND METHODS Mailed questionnaires were completed between 1994 and 1997 in eight Canadian provinces for incident, histologically confirmed cases of the stomach (n=1182), colon (n=1727), rectum (n=1447), liver (n=309), pancreas (n=628), lung (n=33...
