Glycemic Index of Sweet Corn

Processing sweet corn may impact digestibility and, therefore, glycemic response following consumption. The primary aim of this study is to assess the glycemic index of various sweet corn products and varieties. An exploratory aim is to assess hunger/satiety scores following sweet corn intake.

Non-alcoholic, Fiber-enriched Beer and Its Effect on Blood Glucose Concentration

This study examines how various non-alcoholic beverages affect blood sugar levels. The beverages are a non-alcoholic, fiber-enriched beer, a conventional non-alcoholic beer, and a sugar solution. Participants drink one of these beverages on different days. Afterwards, a sensor on the upper arm is used to measure the sugar content in the body fluid under the skin over a period of two hours. The aim is to find out how much blood sugar concentration rises after drinking. This will be used to check whether the non-alcoholic, fiber-enriched beer has a more favorable effect on sugar metabolism than conventional beverages. Participation is voluntary, and the data will be treated confidentially.

Determination of the Glycemic Index (GI) and Glycemic Load (GL) of Watermelon (Citrullus Lanatus) in Healthy Adults

This study aims to evaluate and compare the glycemic load (GL) and glycemic index (GI) of different types of watermelons commonly available in the market. Using glucose as the reference standard, the study will measure the blood glucose response following consumption of each watermelon type in healthy adult participants.

Determination of Glycemic Index and Glycemic Load of Selected Melon Varieties in Healthy Adults

This crossover study aims to determine and compare the glycemic index (GI) and glycemic load (GL) of different melon varieties in healthy adults. Using glucose as the reference food, participants will consume test portions of each melon variety containing equivalent amounts of available carbohydrates.
