Postprandial glycaemia is a key determinant of overall glycaemic control. One mechanism by which dietary strategies can reduce postprandial glycaemic excursions is by slowing gastric emptying. This study aimed to evaluate the acute effect of ingesting riceberry rice (RR) compared with that of ingesting white rice (WR) on gastric emptying rate (GER), plasma glucose and glucose-regulating hormones, including insulin, glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1), in healthy subjects. A randomised, open-label, within-subject, crossover study was performed in six healthy men. GER was measured by scintigraphy over 240 min, and plasma concentrations of glucose, insulin, GLP-1 and GIP were measured at multiple time points over 180 min. This study revealed that RR slows GER with a reduction in postprandial plasma glucose concentrations compared with WR. Plasma insulin and GLP-1 concentrations did not differ between RR and WR. However, plasma GIP concentrations were markedly increased after WR ingesting v. after RR ingestion. We conclude that RR attenuates postprandial glycaemia by slowing GER without altering plasma insulin or GLP-1. Plasma GIP concentrations are likely related to differences in GER and carbohydrate absorption. We propose that dietary fibre-enriched foods, including RR, could contribute to improvement in postprandial glycaemia via delayed gastric emptying.
