Blood Glucose and Insulin Responses to Snack Food Products

January 30, 2019 updated by: Mondelēz International, Inc.

A Study to Determine the Effects of Added Ingredients on Glycaemic and Insulinemic Responses to a Snack Food

The purpose of this study is to assess the effects of added food ingredients, when baked into a snack food product, on glycaemic index of the product and glycaemic and insulinemic responses to the product in healthy adults.
