Phytic acid and calcium affect the in vitro rate of navy bean starch
digestion
and blood glucose response in humans.
Thompson LU, Button CL, Jenkins DJ
Carbohydrate foods that are slowly digested appear beneficial in the
management of diabetes and hyperlipidemia. This study determined the
effect of endogenous and added phytic acid as well as Ca on the in
vitro rate of starch digestion and in vivo blood glucose response to
navy bean flour, prepared as unleavened bread. Removal of phytic
acid
from and addition of Ca to navy bean flour increased the starch
digestion in vitro and raised the glycemic response in vivo while
readdition of phytic acid to dephytinized flour produced the
opposite
effect. Carbohydrate malabsorption assessed by breath H2 measurement
related negatively to glycemic response but the changes observed
were
much lower than the changes in glycemic response. This study
confirmed
the role of both added and endogenous phytic acid in slowing the in
vitro rate of starch digestibility and in vivo glycemic response to
legumes and the ability of Ca to modify this effect.
