About
Health organizations recommend fiber-rich and whole-grain foods for healthy diets due to their physiological beneficial effects on human health. But, little information is available between these 2 food categories, i.e. fiber added to foods versus fiber naturally present in foods. The present study investigated the effect of enriching white wheat flour with wheat bran at 2 levels (15 and 30%) to produce 15% fiber-rich bread (15FRB) and 30% fiber-rich bread (30FRB) and compared them with white bread (WB) and whole-grain bread (WGB) in terms of bread quality, palatability, satiety, and glycemic response. Ten healthy subjects were studied on 4 separate days with each subject testing all 4 types of bread. On each test day subjects came to the test center after an overnight fast. After 2 fasting finger-prick blood samples, they ate a portion of one of the breads containing 50g available carbohydrate and had further blood samples at intervals over 2 hours. They also rated their feelings of satiety fasting and at intervals over 2 hours.

Ten healthy subjects were studied on 4 separate days with each subject testing all 4 types of bread. On each test day subjects came to the test center after an overnight fast. After 2 fasting finger-prick blood samples 5 minutes apart, they ate a portion of one of the breads containing 50g available carbohydrate and had further blood samples at 15, 30, 45, 60,90 and 120 min after starting to eat. After each blood sample also rated their feelings of satiety on a 7-point scale from extremely hungry to extremely full.
