  1. 1 Values are means ± SEM. *Different from WWB P < 0.05; **P < 0.01. BK, barley kernel; f-, fasting-; GIP, glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide; GLP-1, glucagon-like peptide-1; H2, breath hydrogen; WWB, white wheat bread.
  2. 2 The percentage change is calculated as the difference from the WWB to the BK.
  3. 3 P = 0.07.
  4. 4 P = 0.06.
