Journal Title: Journal of Diabetes and Obesity - Year 2016, Vol 3, Issue 1
Abstract
Diabetes is one of the most devastating diseases in the world Its prevention is very important in addition to the development of the curing technology We started the cooperative research on low Glycemic Index GI rice to prevent diabetes High-amylose rice is promising to prevent diabetes because its GI is lower than low-amylose one. Since Hoku243 presents fewer hort-branched glucans and more long chains in the amylopectin starch its starch is resistant to gelatinization and the boiled rice grains are non-sticky and brittle The prevention of abrupt increases in postprandial blood glucose level BGL by feeding Sprague-Dawley SD rats with Hoku243 produced by high pressure treatment HPT after soaking in unsalted rice koji miso was investigated
