Brief summary
The present study determined the effect of Xylose consumption on postprandial hyperglycemia in normal (n=25) and hyperglycemic subjects (n=50).
Detailed description
In this double-blind crossover designed study, Participants were randomly assigned to consume a sucrose drink (Control, sucrose 50g + deionized water 100g) or a sucrose drink additionally containing 5 g (Test 1, sucrose : xylose = 10:1), 3.33 g (Test 2, sucrose : xylose = 15:1) or 2.5 g (Test 3, sucrose : xylose = 20:1) of D-xylose with a week interval.
Interventions
sucrose : xylose = 10:1, sucrose 50 g + xylose 5 g + deionized water 95 g
sucrose : xylose = 15:1, sucrose 50 g + xylose 3.33 g + deionized water 96.67 g
sucrose : xylose = 20:1, sucrose 50 g + xylose 2.5 g + deionized water 97.5 g
sucrose 50 g + deionized water 100 g
