Abstract: Foods or meals high in available carbohydrate such as sucrose or starch increase postprandial blood glucose concentrations. According to Node et al. (Cardiovascular diabetology, 8, 23 (2009)), repeated high post-prandial plasma glucose “spikes” are associated with an increased risk of developing type II diabetes. Unregulated glycemic excursions are undesirable, and any reduction or “blunting” of the post-prandial glucose concentration in blood is potentially beneficial. This invention relates to an edible composition for delay of intestinal glucose uptake through synergistic inhibition of both active sodium glucose co-transporter 1 (SGLT1) and passive glucose transporter 2 (GLUT2) leading to flattening or blunting of the post-prandial glucose peak.
