Article Abstract
A low glycemic index is known to have numerous health benefits, especially in the prevention of metabolic diseases as type 2 diabetes. The glycemic response following specific foods consumption has been reported in numerous tables, but few of them include data on apple-based fruit desserts as puree, while they represent a major food consumed by children and adolescents. The aim of this study was to determine the glycemic and insulinemic response of two different apple purees from France and the United States, made from different raw materials and with different processes. In this cross-over study, 10 healthy adults ingested a standard glucose solution on three separate visits before, after, and in between the test product visits and the two different apple puree in a randomized order, on one occasion only. Blood samples were collected before and all along the 2-h after ingestion to determine the blood glucose and insulin concentrations (enzymatic assay). Consumption of the two-apple purees led to moderate and similar glycemic and insulinemic responses. Both products presented a low glycemic index (GI) and load (GL) and insulinemic index (II). Apple purees are presenting a low GI, GL, and II and could be part of a low glycemic diet.

Objective: To evaluate the sensorial acceptance of sorghum beverage and its acute effect on the glycemic and insulin and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) responses, food consumption, and subjective appetite and satiety sensations in normoglycemic adults.
Methods: The sorghum flour was characterized, followed by the development of the beverages and sensory analysis with 60 adults. Subsequently, an acute trial was conducted with 14 normoglycemic individuals, where capillary and venous blood were collected at different time points to assess glycemic, insulinemic and satiety responses.
Effects of L-Arabinose on Glycemic Responses After the Consumption of Sucrose-Rich Foods in Individuals with Impaired Fasting Glucose: A Randomized Controlled Cross-Over Trial.

Background: Impaired fasting glucose (IFG) is considered a preclinical stage of type 2 diabetes. L-arabinose is a sucrase inhibitor that interferes with sucrose breakdown and has been shown to lower glycemic and insulinemic responses in healthy individuals. However, its effects in individuals with IFG are unknown.

Background: HIV and obesity are conditions of impaired lipid storage where ectopic lipid accumulates in organs and tissues, promoting glucose intolerance and insulin resistance. Persons with HIV (PWH) are at high risk for diabetes, and one indicator of risk is the density of organs and tissues involved in glucose metabolism, which reflects ectopic lipid content and can be quantified using CT-tissue attenuation. We investigated relationships between subcutaneous adipose (SAT), visceral adipose (VAT), liver, pancreas, and skeletal muscle densities with biomarkers of glycemic/insulinemic status.

Consumption of bakery products prepared with finely milled flour is associated with elevated postprandial glycemia, increased hunger, and reduced satiety. The milling process disrupts the plant cell walls of cereal grains and legumes, enhancing the accessibility of encapsulated starch to digestive enzymes. This study investigates the effects of flour origin (wheat and chickpea) and particle size in three wholemeal breads on physicochemical properties, postprandial glucose, insulin, glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) responses, and subjective appetite sensations in healthy individuals.
