Cacao fruit pulp is a sweet and fruity carbohydrate-rich edible mucilage that is often discarded. The objective of this study is to assess the glycemic response and determine the glycemic index of cacao fruit pulp.
In an acute, open-labeled, randomized design, individuals without diabetes were studied over 120 minutes after consuming 25 grams of available carbohydrate portions of cacao pulp or dextrose.
