Abstract
- Opposed to whole wheat (WWP), traditional pizza (TP) is loved by patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) despite causing hyperglycemia. 50 well-trained T1DM patients had higher glucose levels after TP than after WWP or mixed flour pizza, which however was tasty, digestible and metabolically appropriate to break diet monotony. Image 1 • Consumption of traditional pizza causes high post meal glucose levels in patients with diabetes, especially those with type 1 disease. • Traditional pizza causes high post meal glucose levels in type 1 diabetes disease. 50 patients with type 1 diabetes, we compared effects of refined (traditional), whole wheat and mixed flour pizzas. • The latter two varieties cause lower glucose post meal hyperglycemia, and also have a pleasant taste.
