Brief summary

This randomized, cross-over study compares pasta produced with three different wheat varieties (Senatore Cappelli, Korasan, Claudio). Patients with type 2 diabetes with no pharmacological treatment will be randomized to three different sequences, and asked to eat a standard portion of pasta on three different occasions, four days apart. 3-hour post-prandial interstitial glucose profiles will be recorded using trans-cutaneous sensors.

Interventions

OTHERPasta manufactured with traditional wheat varieties (Senatore Cappelli, Korasan)

A single meal composed of a portion of pasta (with standardized dressing) manufactured with different wheat varieties

OTHERPasta manufactured with current wheat varieties (Claudio)
