Abstract

Fibers are proven to provide health benefits in preventing metabolic diseases. This chapter first presents the existing blood glucose monitoring sensors and a prediction model for blood glucose concentration. It also aims at analyzing the efficacy of a functional fiber, psyllium on the glycemic control function. Three studies included suggesting psyllium supplementation would significantly improve glycemic response while two studies included showed no effects. Advantages and limitations of each study were evaluated. Overall, it is generally believed that psyllium might give glycemic response improvement effect, especially in Type II Diabetes Mellitus patients.
