This study aimed to evaluate the effect of consuming a portion of French bread combined with whole or ground flaxseed on the glycemia of people with DM 2 in a randomized, crossover clinical trial conducted with 16 people with DM 2 who were not using insulin. The main questions of the study were: 1. Is flaxseed able to control the glycemia of people with type 2 diabetes? 2. What is the best way to consume flaxseed to control the glycemia of people with type 2 diabetes? The 3 types of bread (whole flaxseed, ground flaxseed and control) were evaluated in interventions, with a 7-day interval between them, for the consumption of the bread and evaluation of the behavior of the glycemia and insulin curve.
