Figure 1. Postprandial plasma glucose responses.

Figure 1

Mean (± SEM) incremental postprandial changes (Δ) in plasma glucose in response to equal amounts of carbohydrates from a reference meal and the PMPD meals; n = 14 (n = 13 for S and S+6AA; n = 12 for W+6AA). Values with different letters are significantly different, P≤0.05 (ANCOVA followed by Tukey’s multiple comparisons test). A significant treatment effect (P<0.001) and a significant time x treatment interaction (P<0.001) was found. *At 60 min W induced a significantly lower glucose response than did the reference. S (soy protein isolate); S+5AA (S, iso, leu, lys, thr and val); S+6AA (S+5AA and arg); W (whey protein isolate); W+5AA (W, iso, leu, lys, thr and val); W+6AA (W+5AA and arg).
