Abstract
The effects of chitosan-oligosaccharide (GO2KA1) on postprandial blood glucose levels in adults with normal blood glucose levels were investigated. Postprandial blood glucose levels were measured at 30, 60, 90, and 120 min after sucrose administration with and without 500 mg of GO2KA1. GO2KA1 administration reduced the area under the blood glucose-time curve (AUC) and the blood glucose peak (Cmax) values while the time of peak plasma concentration of blood glucose (Tmax) value was significantly (p<0.05) increased, compared to controls. GO2KA1 reduced postprandial blood glucose level increases via slower absorption of glucose in the small intestine based on carbohydrate hydrolyzing enzyme inhibition.
