Fourteen healthy, normal weight subjects (male: 6, female: 8) after 12hr fast, consumed 50g available carbohydrates from D-glucose, three times, in different visits as reference food along with 300ml water; and 50g available carbohydrates from emmer bread from Greek emmer seeds, emmer bread from Italian emmer seeds, and whole wheat commercial soft bread, tested once, in different visits. there was a washout period of 2 days between visits. Fingertip capillary blood glucose samples were taken at baseline, 15, 30, 45, 60, 90 and 120min after food consumption. The first glucose sample was taken exactly 15min after the first bite of food or drink.

Fourteen healthy, normal weight subjects (male: 6, female: 8) after 10-14 hr fast, consumed 50g glucose diluted in 300ml water, tested three times, in different visits, within 5-10min. Fingertip capillary blood glucose samples were taken at baseline, 15, 30, 45, 60, 90 and 120min.

Clinically useful change in blood glucose, defined as the restoration of glucose within normal limits during the 2hr glucose tolerance test

Useful change in subjective appetite using visual analogue scales with a score 0 to 10 (given in the form of booklet,one scale per page) at baseline, 15, 30, 45, 60, 90 and 120 min. The minimum or maximum score will be evaluated if it is better or worse depending on the appetite variable e.g hunger, satiety, desire to eat etc.
