Assesment Of Postprandial Glycemic Response In Healthy Human With Respect To Some Promising Indigenous Mango Varieties Of Pakistan - 2016. - 75p.;

Carbohydrates intake result in elevation of BGL. GI is a simple tool to select right carbohydrate foods while GL determines the overall effect of that food on human health. High GI/GL diets are directly associated with progression of diabetes type 2. Mango is ranked among medium glycemic index fruit with GI (51-55) and nutritionally it is rich in dietary fiber. Different mango types have different nutritional composition so it was very necessary to estimate postprandial glycemic response of various mango types to determine the possible positive impact of all varieties on overall human health.
Samples of six mango varieties were evaluated for various physico-chemical testing. About 50-gram available carbohydrate from each source i.e. glucose and six mango cultivars were provided to each study person. Later on, post prandial blood glucose of all 10 individuals with a time interval of 15 minutes was determined by finger-prick method up to 120 minutes.
ANOVA was used to analyze all assessed attributes statistically. Means were compared through Duncan’s multiple range test for significance. Significance level was defined as p≤0.0.5 SPSS version 20 was used for all statistical analysis.
Desi variety among all studied mango types reflected low GI and GL value.
