Aims: To identify glycemic index (GI) and glycemic load (GL) of four local alcoholic drinks of Benin in young and healthy adult subjects. Study Design: An experimental study. Methodology: After ethic advice, 40 voluntary subjects (24 men, 16 women), were selected among the students of the University of Parakou (Benin) and divided into 4 groups of 10. Each group of subjects consumed 100 mL of one of the four beverages (tchoukoutou, sodabi, fresh palm wine, fermented palm wine), alone and with 100 g of whole wheat bread (50 g of carbohydrates). The glycemic response for 2 hours was assessed based on plasma glucoses.
