The current study compared postprandial glycemic and insulinemic responses to four nutrition bars containing two different doses of resistant starch type-4. Normoglycemic adults ( n = 17) completed six treatments, consuming either 50 g or 30 g digestible carbohydrate as: dextrose beverages (DEX), control puffed wheat bars (PWB), or RS4 test bars (RS4). Glucose (mg/dL) and insulin (µIU/mL) were measured at baseline and 10, 20, 30, 60, 90, and 120 min. There was a main effect of dose and treatment on glucose incremental area under the curve (iAUC, ps < 0.001), such that RS4 (50 g: 941, 95% confidence interval (CI): 501, 1519; 30 g: 481, 95% CI: 186, 914) was lower than PWB (50 g: 1746, 95% CI: 1109, 2528; 30 g: 693, 95% CI: 331, 1188) and DEX (50 g: 1940, 95% CI: 1249, 2783; 30 g:1432, 95% CI: 883, 2114). There was a main effect of dose and treatment on insulin iAUC ( ps < 0.001), such that RS4 (50 g: 1993, 95% CI: 1347, 2764; 30 g: 943, 95% CI: 519, 1493) was lower than PWB (50 g: 3501, 95% CI: 2625, 4502; 30 g: 1789, 95% CI: 1193, 256) and DEX (50 g: 3143, 95% CI: 2317, 4095; 30 g: 2184, 95% CI: 1519, 2970). Results demonstrate significantly lower glycemic and insulinemic responses following consumption of nutrition bars containing RS4, regardless of dose, when compared with puffed wheat bars and dextrose. |
