Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Reduction of the postprandial blood glucose.;Longitudinal reduction of blood glucose postprandial. Verification of this reduction will be carried out by comparing the current values with the consultations immediately prior consultations. It is expected that each participant contributes to six values pre and post exposure. Blood glucose will be measured using a glucometer, registered in Imetro. The data will be recorded in an Excel worksheet and the values are compared using the t test for paired measures to a 0.05 significance level. ;It is expected to reduce the values of blood glucose to levels below 180mmdl the participants in the intervention group compared to the placebo group.;The results led to the decrease in blood glucose values to levels below 180mmdl the participants in the intervention group compared to the placebo group. | — |
