The primary intervention for management of prediabetes is lifestyle changes. Eating healthier and increasing physical activity was found to slow the progression of prediabetes into diabetes, reduce the risk of other diseases like cardiovascular disease and hypertension, and have a lasting impact even after the intervention is discontinued. Studies found that increasing the intake of fiber, pre- and probiotics, and fermented foods have been linked to improved glycemic biomarkers. The goal of this crossover randomized trial is to assess the relationship between lengthened fermentation time of sourdough bread, e.g., an increased amount of lactic acid and acetic acid in the bread product, and postprandial glycemic response in healthy adults with prediabetes.
