Brief summary
One of the factors affecting human health is nutrition. The effects of foods on blood glucose are still under investigation. The Glycemic Index (GI), which is associated with many diseases today, is a value that measures the rate at which carbohydrate-containing foods raise blood glucose. It is thought that the loaves of bread produced will be a product with low GI value and can be consumed by celiacs and diabetics. It is aimed to investigate the effect of adding different amounts of hazelnut flour to bread recipes using gluten-free corn flour on blood glucose.
Interventions
DIETARY_SUPPLEMENTConsumption of Cornbread with Hazelnut Bread
Cornbread was added to 15 grams and 30 grams of bread and consumed by the participants. Blood glucose levels were then measured. Obese and normal-weight individuals will be divided into two groups according to their anthropometric measurements.

Inclusion criteria
* The study group consisted of volunteer individuals aged between 18 and 35 years. * The first blood glucose measurement was taken after at least 8 hours of fasting and any of the bread types were given to the participants for consumption. * During the measurements, the volunteers were observed to avoid water, coffee, and any food intake and to avoid excessive exercise.
Exclusion criteria
* Pregnant, * lactating women * patients with physician-diagnosed chronic diseases
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| One loaf of bread was consumed each week and the study will continue for a month. Blood glucose measurements were performed with a glucometer at 0 (fasting), 15, 30, 45, 60, 90, and 120 minutes after each bread consumption. | Within research completion, an average of a month | The effect of loaves of bread with a high glycemic index on blood glucose is well known. The higher the glycemic index, the higher the blood glucose fluctuation. Glycemic index values should be lower than white bread. Consumption of hazelnut flour rich in fatty acids and fiber should show a positive change in blood glucose. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| This classification as obese and normal-weight individuals was made with the BIA (Bioelectrical impedance analysis) method. This classification was understood by anthropometric measurements made in the first week. | Within research completion, an average of 1 week | It is known that high glycemic index values of bread consumption are paralleled by high blood fluctuations. On the other hand, the impact of bread consumption on obesity and normal-weight people is also of interest. In obese people, the high glycemic index predisposes them to overeating. As the amount of hazelnut flour in bread increases, there is a positive change in blood glucose fluctuations in individuals. |
