Data are expressed as mean ± SD. Vegetables before carbohydrates vs carbohydrates before vegetables. MPG, mean plasma glucose; SD, standard deviation; MAGE, mean amplitude of glycemic excursions; LAGE, largest amplitude of glycemic excursions. PPG; postprandial plasma glucose; IAUC, incremental area under the curve; IGP, incremental glucose peak.
