Abstract

The effect of eating different types of rice was studied, including basmati rice, local amber rice, brown rice and diet rice, in addition to bulgur and mung bean on the glycemic response and glycemic Index values. The effect of eating rice cooked by pressing and Boiled methods on the blood sugar response of healthy volunteers was studied, where the results of the study included ten volunteers. The highest increase in blood sugar level response occurred after consuming amber rice cooked by pressing method, which reached 160.3 (mg / 100 ml). After thirty minutes of eating it, while bulgur rice cooked by Boiled method has raised the level of blood sugar response less than rice of all kinds and at a rate of 121.7 (mg / 100 ml) after eating it by thirty, the study determined the glycemic index and blood sugar load for each sample of raw, mixed and cooked rice (pressing and boiled) in addition to bulgur. The results showed a variation in the values of the glycemic index at the level of (p?0.05) for different types of rice. The results showed that the highest glycemic index was for amber rice cooked by pressing method with a percentage of (88.8) and the lowest glycemic index was for bulgur cooked by Boiled method by (37). While the glycemic index of white basmati rice in the ways of pressing and Boiled was 66.6 and 53 respectively, and the additions that were added to basmati rice, which included mash, cinnamon and turmeric, had a clear role in reducing the blood sugar index, as the values of the glycemic Index for basmati rice pressed and mixed with mash, cinnamon and turmeric are 60, 56 and 57 respectively, while the values of the glycemic Index for basmati rice mixed with mash, cinnamon and turmeric are 49.2. 48 and 46, respectively.
