[Blood sugar response to administration of bran or guar added to pasta in children with type I diabetes].
Blood sugar profiles after administration of pasta with (PG) and without (P) guar have been evaluated in 30 young type I diabetic children. Maximum increase of blood sugar was observed at 30' (mean = 21 mg/dl) after P and at 90' (mean = 6 mg/dl) after PG. Maximum decrease in blood sugar levels was reached at 180' in both groups (50 mg/dl after P and 25 mg/dl after PG). Blood sugar level was significantly different only at 180'. No significant difference was observed analyzing rates of increase.
