	Time after treatment (h)	Treatment
		Glucose	Inulin	Resistant Starch
		Glucose (mmol×h/L)	iAUC 0–2 h	3.73 ± 0.49	4.60 ± 0.55^a	3.93 ± 0.56
iAUC 2–4 h	−1.13 ± 0.23		−0.89 ± 0.25	−0.66 ± 0.30
tAUC 4–6 h	11.6 ± 0.3		11.5 ± 0.3	10.9 ± 0.3^b

Insulin (pmol×h/L)	iAUC 0–2 h	111.0 ± 18.8	114.9 ± 21.0	106.8 ± 16.8
	iAUC 2–4 h	23.7 ± 7.2	33.3 ± 11.6	34.0 ± 10.1
	tAUC 4–6 h	77.8 ± 10.5	76.7 ± 9.2	66.7 ± 8.9^a

C-peptide (pmol×h/L)	iAUC 0–2 h	2660 ± 238	2770 ± 212	2720 ± 203
	iAUC 2–4 h	857 ± 151	1055 ± 179	1290 ± 241^b
	tAUC 4–6 h	2632 ± 211	2617 ± 188	2444 ± 197^a

FFA (mEq×h/L)	tAUC 0–4 h	1.05 ± 0.07	1.06 ± 0.08	0.94 ± 0.06^a
	tAUC 4–6 h	0.53 ± 0.03	0.52 ± 0.03	0.48 ± 0.03^a
	iAUC min4	0.21 ± 0.03	0.19 ± 0.03	0.15 ± 0.03^b

Values are mean ± SEM for n=25; iAUC, incremental area under the curve; min4, measured from nadir to 4h; tAUC, total area under the curve.

^a

Significantly different from Glucose (p<0.03).

^b

Significantly different from Glucose (p<0.01).
