Volunteers were given 50 g of glucose, as a reference food (RF) on the first day, and TFs, i.e. TF1 (mixed mini meal: roti made of wheat flour and chana dal+ curd), TF2 [mixed mini meal made of wheat, pearl barley, and Bengal gram flour (besan) mix with chana whole (un-...
Composite flour was developed by combining wheat with Bengal gram in the proportion of 3:2 and with Bengal gram and barley in the proportion of 3:1:1. After several trials of different proportions for preparing Missi Roti, its acceptability was assessed (scores >...
The present study investigated the proximate composition, glycemic index (GI), and factors affecting the GI of breakfast foods such as roti, pittu, porridge, and a novel food, muffin made with flour from some such underutilized plant sources. The glycemic responses were estimated according to ...
