Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
A mixed meal tolerance test of a glucomannan rice to ascertain area under the curve glucose. Participants will attend after a 12 hour fast and consume 1 cup glucomannan (konjac) rice with 25g shredded chicken, 75g steamed frozen mixed vegetables and 10ml soy sauce. The intervention will be administered by a research nurse. Baseline (0 min) satiety will be recorded and the meals will be served subsequently. Participants will rate the palatability of the meal using a 9 point hedonic scale immediately after consumption and satiety questionnaires will be completed at at all timepoints. Participants will be given 15 min to consume the meal. After this they must rest quietly for the remainder of the test. Test meals will be weighed using a digital scale to the nearest 0·2 g. Samples will be taken at timepoints baseline, 30, 60, 90 and 120min for glucose. Wash out between treatments will be 7 days.

Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 337439 0
Area under the curve glucose
Timepoint [1] 337439 0
For each test meal samples will be taken at timepoints baseline, 30, 60, 90 and 120min for glucose. These time points are combined into a single measure as area under the curve. The intervention is taken at baseline, samples at 30, 60, 90 and 120 mins are post meal consumption.
Secondary outcome [1] 431857 0
Satiety
Timepoint [1] 431857 0
Each meal test - satiety is measured at timepoints baseline, 30, 60, 90 and 120min. The intervention is taken at baseline, samples at 30, 60, 90 and 120 mins are post meal consumption.
Secondary outcome [2] 431858 0
Palatability
Timepoint [2] 431858 0
Each meal test palatability is measured immediately after consumption of the test meal at baseline

Summary
Brief summary
To investigate whether foods made from glucomannan have a benefit over and above their lack of carbohydrate in type 1 diabetes, as compared with cauliflower rice (also low carbohydrate) and a brown rice control. These are three alternatives which can be used in similar ways in a meal. We will conduct meal tests in 15 people with type 1 diabetes and compare area under the curve glucose for the three test foods. The hypothesis is that the glucomannan rice will have a favourable satiety score and lowest glucose response.
