First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This completed study tested how three corn snacks with different amounts of whole grain affect blood sugar in 29 healthy adults. Participants ate the snacks and a sugar drink on separate days, and researchers measured their blood sugar responses. The goal was to see if more whole grain leads to a lower glycemic index, which could help people make smarter snack choices.
