Reducing the digestion of digestible carbohydrates in a digestible carbohydrate-based material, and reducing the absorption of the digestion product(s) of digestible carbohydrates (that is, simple sugars) within the small intestine. The undigested digestible carbohydrate and the unabsorbed digestion products pass through the small intestines and into the colon, where they are fermented. In effect, the food materials made by practicing the present invention cause a controlled amount of digestible carbohydrate to by-pass the small intestine, resulting in the fermentation of digestible carbohydrates in the colon. The invention also provides for processing of a digestible carbohydrate-based ingredient with a non-digestible food film material, to form a reduced digestible carbohydrate food having a protective food film network, which can inhibit or prevent digestion of the digestible carbohydrate. The present invention also provides for processing of a digestible carbohydrate-based ingredient with a non-digestible food film material, to provide a resulting reduced digestible carbohydrate food containing a viscosity-building component that contributes to the formation of a viscous intestinal chyme that can inhibit or prevent digestion of the digestible carbohydrate and can inhibit adsorption of digestion products of digestible carbohydrates in the small intestine.

To provide a method of lowering blood glucose levels and a method of treating and preventing diabetes.

A belt-shaped compression strip 1 is fitted around a tightened area near the proximal end of an arm or a leg of a user and is fastened round the area. In this way, a compression pressure of on the order of 150 mmHg is applied to the tightened area to restrict blood flow through limbs receiving the compression pressure. This condition is held for about 15 minutes. During that time a user may keep rest or may do light exercises, which lowers a blood glucose level of the user. This provides treatment for diabetes for a diabetes patient and provides prevention of diabetes for a person who has a risk of developing diabetes.
