Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Fitjoy is a commercially available food bar marketed as having a low glycemic index and being relatively high in dietary fiber. The fiber contained within this product is isomalto-oligoshaccaride (IMO) which is a food ingredient with a relative sweetness level equal to approximately 60% of sucrose. Chemically, IMO is a mixture of glucose oligomers with alpha - (1-6) - linkages. To date, no research has been performed on the glycemic response to ingesting IMO in combination with other constituents. Therefore the purpose of this study is to determine the glycemic index of the Fitjoy bar.
