Chickpea Pulao Using Fenugreek Seeds and Indian Rennet for Improving Blood Glycaemic Levels (DP-Trails)

October 17, 2023 updated by: Nauman Khalid, University of Management and Technology Lahore

Formulation and Assessment of Chickpea Pulao Using Fenugreek Seeds and Indian Rennet for Improving Blood Glycemic Levels

The goal of this study was to perform a clinical trial to compare the impact of herbal chickpea pulao (cooked Indian-Pakistani rice dish) on improving postprandial blood glucose levels in type-2 diabetic people. The main questions it aims to answer are:

  • Whether Indian rennet and fenugreek seed extract can modulate blood sugar levels or not?
  • At what concentration the flavor, taste, and blood sugar impact were acceptable?

Participants were provided with control and intervention herbal chickpea pulao for a period of 21 days and asked to provide feedback on taste, flavor, and over-acceptability, and their postprandial blood glucose levels were checked.
