  • Title: [Palatinite in type II diabetics. Effect on blood-glucose, serum-insulin, C-peptide and free fatty acids].
    Author: Petzoldt R, Lauer P, Spengler M, Schöffling K.
    Journal: Dtsch Med Wochenschr; 1982 Dec 17; 107(50):1910-3. PubMed ID: 6754331.
    Abstract:
    In a randomized cross-over study, 24 type II diabetics were given at first 50 g palatinite and later 50 g glucose or vice versa in the morning before food intake. After administration of glucose there was a definite rise in blood-glucose, serum-insulin and C-peptide concentrations. After palatinite the rise of blood-glucose as well as serum-insulin and C-peptide was significantly less. Subjective side-effects were noted only after a single high dose of palatinite. Nonetheless, palatinite appears to be suitable as a sugar substitute in a diabetic diet, since in comparison with glucose there are no significant changes in blood-sugar levels and no additional insulin consumption is induced. Furthermore, because of its low energetic utilization it has an advantage over other sugar substitutes.
