[The effect of Sinecal fiber on compensation in type 2 diabetics].
The authors investigated in 28 type 2 diabetics the effect of addition of 21 g Sinecal fibre to the normal diet on the glucose and lipid metabolism. The value of C,peptide was significantly influenced after breakfast and a single dose of Sinecal. The other investigated parameters (blood sugar on fasting and after a meal, glycosuria, glycosylated proteins, C-peptide on fasting and after a meal, triacylglycerol and cholesterol) were not influenced by a single nor by long-term intake of Sinecal. Further development of fibre preparations with better tolerance and a greater effect on the glucose metabolism is desirable.
