Postprandial glucose, insulin, and lipid responses to four meals containing unpurified dietary fiber in non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM), hypertriglyceridemic subjects.

Abstract

The proportion of soluble to insoluble fiber in cereal and fruit does not necessarily predict the effect of fiber on the glycemic response, while the overall quantity of fiber does appear to affect postprandial glucose metabolism in NIDDM.
