Determination of the glycaemic index (GI) of corn noodles

Abstract

The study was conducted to determine the glycaemic index (GI) of corn noodles. The study was conducted on 14 healthy adult volunteers, applying the method according to TCVN 10036: 2013 (ISO 26642: 2010). Data were processed using Microsoft Excel software and the results were evaluated according to the prescribed standards. The results showed that the research product had a glycaemic index (GI) of 58.0. Corn noodles are classified as foods with an average glycaemic index. The product has the potential to be used as a supplement in daily meals for people who need to control blood sugar levels (pre-diabetics, obese people).
