Brief Description

Description :

Diabetic is one of the major metabolic disorders affecting all strata of society which is characterized by altered carbohydrate, lipid and protein metabolism. Sustained hyperglycemia leads to micro and macro vascular complications which include nephropathy, retinopathy and neuropathy. Hence, maintaining optimal blood glucose levels becomes imperative to prevent long term deleterious complications associated with diabetics. The process developed by CFTRI for the development of low GI soup mix has the ability to reduce basic diabetic parameters. The soup mix can be used as a sort of a meal between meals by reconstituting with hot water and cooking for 2 minutes. It can be consumed preferentially as a soup before the meals at least twice a day
