To assess the true physiological basis of carbohydrate exchange of food, commonly eaten in South India, the "Glycemic Index", defined as the area of the glucose tolerance test, under 3 hr, for each food item, expressed as percentage of the area after taking the same amount of carbohydrate as glucose (75 gms) was studied, in healthy fasting human volunteers. Thirteen articles of food items were fed to groups of 12 to 15 healthy fasting volunteers and their glucose tolerance test values up to 3 hr, were measured. The highest glycemic index values were shown by starchy tubers, Raggi and fleshy fruits, while relatively lower values were obtained for pulses and rice; whole wheat showed the smallest glycemic index.
为评估印度南部常见食物碳水化合物交换的真正生理基础，对“血糖生成指数”进行了研究。血糖生成指数的定义为，在健康空腹人类志愿者中，每种食物在3小时内葡萄糖耐量试验的面积，以摄入与葡萄糖等量（75克）碳水化合物后3小时的面积百分比来表示。给12至15名健康空腹志愿者分组喂食13种食物，并测量他们长达3小时的葡萄糖耐量试验值。淀粉质块茎、拉吉（一种谷物）和肉质水果的血糖生成指数值最高，而豆类和大米的值相对较低；全麦的血糖生成指数最小。
