Brief Summary   This study is a prospective, comparative study to evaluate the glycemic index of test (food) products: Rice 1, Rice 2, Rice 3 and Rice 4 in controlled type 2 diabetic patients that will be conducted in one centre in India. The objective of the study is to evaluate the glycemic index of test food ( 04 rice samples).

Selected patients will be asked to come to the trial site after 10-12 hours of overnight fast. Each patient will receive the reference food on three occasions and each rice sample on eleven occasions on separate days in a random order. Each patient will serve as his or her own control.

Capillary blood samples will be collected and blood glucose readings would be noted down as per the glucometer at ten different time points i.e. -5mins , 0mins (will be averaged to obtain Fasting Blood glucose reading), 15mins, 30mins, 45mins, 60mins, 90mins, 120mins, 150mins & 180mins during each visit for 35 days of study period.


Blood glucose level will be used to determine glycemic index.
Subject completes all his/her visit within 35 days & after completing the final visit glycemic index will be assessed.
Blood sample will be taken for testing blood glucose level.
