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.

Conditions

Obesity; Celiac Disease; Blood Glucose; Flour Sensitivity

Keywords

Obesity; Celiac Disease; Blood glucose; Flour Sensitivity

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• 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.

  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.

  Within research completion, an average of a month

Secondary Outcomes (1)

• 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

Study Arms (2)

The effect of cornbread consumption blood glucose fluctuations in participants.

EXPERIMENTAL

The bread contained 50 grams of digestible carbohydrates. Participants consumed these loaves of bread when they were hungry. Blood glucose measurements were taken at 0 (fasting),15, 30, 45, 60, 90, and 120 minutes.

Dietary Supplement: Consumption of Cornbread with Hazelnut Bread

The effect of cornbread with hazelnut bread consumption blood glucose fluctuations in participants.

EXPERIMENTAL

Dietary Supplement: Consumption of Cornbread with Hazelnut Bread

Interventions

Consumption of Cornbread with Hazelnut Bread DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

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.

The effect of cornbread consumption blood glucose fluctuations in participants.; The effect of cornbread with hazelnut bread consumption blood glucose fluctuations in participants.
