Summary:(2) Flaxseed also contains fibre which plays a key role in lowering postprandial blood glucose levels. In a randomized cross-over design, 32 healthy volunteers (21 female, 11 male; age 29 SD 5·8 years) consumed three different muffins (control, whole flaxseed and ground flaxseed) and the effects on GR and IR were measured over 2-hours using capillary blood samples.
