Parboiled Rice and Glycemic Control: Effects on Postprandial Glucose, Insulin Sensitivity, and Incretin Response in Healthy and Type 2 Diabetic Individuals, a Pilot Study
These preliminary findings suggest that PBR consumption may confer beneficial effects by lowering postprandial glucose and enhancing insulin sensitivity. Further studies with larger cohorts are warranted to confirm these outcomes and elucidate the physiological mechanisms behind PBR's potential role in dietary management strategies for T2DM.
