Research Abstract |
The extracts from buckwheat bran or buckwheat flour around bran inhibitedα-glucosidase activity in vitro. High protein buckwheat flour (PBF) significantly inhibited the increases in water intake and fasting blood glucose on db/db mice, an animal model with type2diabetes. The protein solubility, water holding capacity, fat absorption capacity and emulsifying stability of PBF were higher than those of normal buckwheat flour. These results suggest that PBF has an effect of diabetes prevention and a potential source for food application.
