Fig. 5. Effect of meal carbohydrate composition on glucose response in 6 males with type 2 diabetes. The mean glucose excursions when subjects ingested the "American diet" are shown in the broken line and the low starch diet in the solid line. B, L, D, and S indicate the time that breakfast, lunch, dinner, and a snack were ingested. The net area responses are shown in the inset. Using the fasting glucose concentration as baseline, the area response to the low starch meals was only 5% of the response to the "American meals". Adapted from [47].
