About this trial

This study aims to evaluate and compare the glycemic index (GI) of various types of jaggery by measuring their effect on blood glucose levels in healthy individuals. Using glucose as the reference standard , the objective is to determine how different jaggery types influence postprandial blood sugar response.

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Golden sugarcane jaggery

    Other intervention

    Participants will consume a standardized portion of jaggery Type A providing 50 grams of available carbohydrates. Capillary blood glucose will be measured over a 2-hour postprandial period.

  • Dark brown sugarcane jaggery

    Other intervention

    Participants will consume a standardized portion of jaggery Type B providing 50 grams of available carbohydrates. Capillary blood glucose will be measured over a 2-hour postprandial period.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Glycemic Index (GI) of Different Types of Jaggery

The incremental area under the blood glucose response curve (iAUC) over 2 hours after consumption of each type of jaggery, expressed as a percentage of the glucose reference.

Time frame
Measured at multiple time points post-consumption (e.g., 0, 15, 30, 45, 60, 90, and 120 minutes) during each test session.

Secondary outcomes

1

Postprandial Blood Glucose Response Curve

Blood glucose levels at each time point following consumption of jaggery types and glucose, to assess the shape and peak of glycemic response.

Time frame
Same as primary outcome (0-120 minutes).
