Beneficial Effect of Xylose Consumption on Postprandial Hyperglycemia in Subjects With Normal Glucose Level and Impaired Fasting Glucose

The present study determined the effect of Xylose consumption on postprandial hyperglycemia in normal (n=25) and hyperglycemic subjects (n=50).

Study Overview

Detailed Description

In this double-blind crossover designed study, Participants were randomly assigned to consume a sucrose drink (Control, sucrose 50g + deionized water 100g) or a sucrose drink additionally containing 5 g (Test 1, sucrose : xylose = 10:1), 3.33 g (Test 2, sucrose : xylose = 15:1) or 2.5 g (Test 3, sucrose : xylose = 20:1) of D-xylose with a week interval.
