Embodiment 1

[0051] In this example, 0.5-2.0 g of active fiber was added to the flavor medium and compressed into tablets. Each tablet contains enough fiber and bioactives to help control blood sugar levels. The tablets are prepared at such a level of formulation that the dosage can be varied if the user is prescribed a high fiber diet by their physician. However, in the absence of other dietary controls, the product itself indicates that the dosage can be increased without side effects. The tablet may be taken during or immediately before or after a meal.

Embodiment 2

[0053] In this example, the active fiber is mixed with a flavored drink (eg fruit juice or milk) and pasteurized to kill bacteria (1-5g / 100-250ml). Beverages prepared in this manner are easy-to-consume products that are conveniently taken with meals.

Embodiment 3

[0055] In this example, the supplement is prepared with flour, stabilizers and inert fillers as a readily measured powder, specially formulated to bind water. In particular, the active fibers can be mixed with dry flour components and inert fillers to form ready-to-use granules. Doses (1-5g) will be in convenient single-dose sachets or in multi-dose bulk bags. This embodiment is best suited to aid in weight loss (a major striker in diabetes) because the particles can be mixed with water (thus allowing less food to be eaten per meal).

Abstract

Use of dietary fibre material extracted from sugar cane in the manufacture of a food product that is formulated to ameliorate the effects of diabetes.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of commercial food supplement manufacture. In particular, the present invention relates to a dietary supplement, the use of the supplement in an individual's diet, and a method for the manufacture of the supplement. Background technique [0002] Diabetes is becoming more prevalent in populations worldwide. Although all three types of diabetes (Mellitus, diabetes insipidus, gestational diabetes) are found in humans, only mellitus and gestational diabetes are associated with insulin and blood glucose levels. [0003] Diabetes results when the body loses the ability to regulate blood sugar due to a loss of the pancreas' ability to make insulin (type 1) or an insensitivity to the insulin the body makes (type 2). Type 1 and type 2 diabetes co-occur in many individuals; more recently, the term "occult autoimmune diabetes in adults" has been used to describe diabetes with both type 1 and type 2 components in the ad...
