The project aims to create a mobile app that helps users combine starchy foods with low-pH foods to reduce blood sugar spikes. It will investigate the effects of these combinations on digestion and test their effectiveness in real-life scenarios.
Low pH foods can attenuate the glycemic response to starch-rich foods.
It has been demonstrated that lemon juice, due to its low pH (pH≈2.3), inhibited key digestive enzymes thereby interrupting gastric digestion of starch in vitro.
This effect can significantly reduce the glycemic response in humans.
In particular, adding lemon juice to a starch rich meal reduced the mean blood glucose concentration peak by 30%.
Considering the panoply of food options available, it is likely that other combinat…
