Blood glucose responses elicited by various doses of oral glucose and white bread. A: blood glucose concentrations after 0 (), 5 (▲), 10 (■), 20 () glucose and 5 (), 10 (□) and 20 g () carbohydrate portions of white bread (each dose tested 2 times in 20 subjects); B linear regression of mean incremental areas under the curve (AUC) on grams carbohydrate (g) for glucose (; AUC = 6.74 g + 6.0; r2 = 0.997, p = 0.0014), and white bread (; AUC = 5.28 g + 4.9; r2 = 0.992, p = 0.0038). Points are means ± SEM.
