“…This goes in line with the fact that fructose is less rapidly absorbed than glucose, which results in a relatively low glycemic index (GI) [32]. In addition, several clinical studies have reported that date consumption did not cause significant postprandial glucose excursions [32][33][34]. Furthermore, Al-Mssallemet et al [35] recently provided evidence to conclude that date consumption had no association with the prevalence of T2MD in neighboring Saudi Arabia.…”

Dates have a low glycemic index and are a source of antioxidants but, nevertheless, contain more than 70% sugar. This study aims to assess the effects of date consumption (three dates daily) on glycemic profile (HbA1c), body mass index (BMI), quality of life, and lipid profile, including total cholesterol, triglyceride, high-density lipoprotein (HDL), and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) in terms of safety for type 2 diabetic mellitus (T2DM) subjects. A randomized controlled trial was conducted with a sample of 100 T2DM subjects (39 male and 61 female) randomly assigned in two groups. The first group received three dates daily for 16 weeks, and the control group avoided date consumption. After a 16-week follow-up period, the study results showed an improvement of lipid profile with a statistically significant decrease in total cholesterol of ∆ = −0.209 mmol/L (confidence interval (CI) 95% −0.358, −0.059; p < 0.05) and in LDL of ∆ = −0.171 mmol/L (CI 95% −0.358, 0.016) in the group receiving three dates daily. Intra-group mean differences of BMI were not statistically different in both groups after 16 weeks of date consumption. Even HbA1c did not change, both within and between groups after date consumption (∆ = 0.087%; CI 95% −0.086, 0.261). Between groups, mean difference changes (intervention minus control) showed a statistically significant improvement of quality of life index of ∆ = ± 30.66 points (CI 95% 12.45, 48.23) due to the consequent improvement in mental health. Although the definitive effect of dose/intake response of date consumption on Hb1Ac, lipid profile, and BMI in T2DM subjects is still to be established, the study suggests that dates could potentially have a beneficial effect on lipid profile, especially in reducing total cholesterol and elevating HDL, because of its high polyphenolic content. In addition, a low–moderate consumption of dates did not impact glucose levels because of dates’ low glycemic index.

“…However, date has been reported to have a low to medium glycaemic index (35.5–49.7) depending on the type of date . The low glycaemic index of date could partly be attributed to its relatively high concentration of fructose and dietary fibre . In a recent 5‐day trial, Alkaabi et al showed that daily consumption of 50 g date with or without coffee by healthy and type 2 diabetes mellitus individuals did not result in significant postprandial glucose excursions, confirming the low glycaemic index of date.…”

“…They also reported a NFS 45,3 modest but not significant increase in incremental AUC for glucose. In healthy and in T2D patients, Alkaabi et al (2013) found that the postprandial glycemic response did not differ between dates with Saudi coffee and dates with water.…”

Purpose – The aim of this study was to evaluate the individual effect of sumac (S), Turkish coffee (C) and yerba mate tea (Y) on the postprandial glycemic response to Lebanese mankoucheh, a common breakfast item in the Lebanese culture, and to determine the glycemic index (GI) of this food. S, C and Y are typical constituents of Lebanese meals. They may influence the postprandial glycemic response to carbohydrate-rich foods, but this has not been studied to date. Design/methodology/approach – Twelve healthy normoglycemic adults consumed on separate days the following test meals: mankoucheh without S (M) with water (control meal); M prepared with single or double doses of S (S1 and S2) with water; M with 60 or 120 mL of unsweetened C; or M with 100 or 200 mL of unsweetened Y. Meals were prepared according to standardized recipes containing 50 g of available carbohydrates. Capillary blood glucose measures were taken at fast and six times after meal ingestion over a two hour period. The GI of mankoucheh was determined using a standard protocol. Findings – The glycemic responses, evaluated at each time following meal ingestion, did not differ significantly among the seven meals, and neither did the incremental area under the glycemic response curves. The GI of mankoucheh was 61 ± 6, with no significant difference between M, M with S1 and M with S2. Originality/value – This study contributes to better characterize the glycemic properties of S, C, Y and mankoucheh in conditions that closely resemble how these dietary items are used and consumed by some cultural groups.
