50 mg of oligosaccharide granules (placebo) enclosed in a capsule are reacted directly with saliva in their oral cavity, and 150 g of cooked rice is immediately ingested. Subsequently, blood glucose, salivary amylase activity, and serum amylase isoenzymes are measured before and after the rice loading.
Participants swallow a 50 mg capsule of acarbose with enough water (approximately 100 mL) so that no part of the capsule remained in their oral cavity. Subsequently, 150 g of cooked rice is ingested, and the same measurements as in Intervention 1 are performed.
