Abstract

Post-prandial blood glucose has attracted attention in the light of adequate diabetic control. Regarding adequate diet therapy, various types are observed such as low carbohydrate diet (LCD), calorie restriction (CR) and Mediterranean diet. Authors and co-researchers have presented clinical diabetic research for long through Japan LCD Promotion Association (JLCDPA). Our proposal includes novel C-peptide index for Carbohydrate-70 (CPI-Carbo70) test using standard Japanese breakfast including 70g of carbohydrate. Before lunch, moderate decrease of blood glucose is usually found, in which the decreasing speed may bring stronger hunger sensation, leading to increased appetite, and increased eating amount for total daily intake.
