The disclosure relates to a nutritional cereal-based food with low glycemic load and processing method thereof, and belongs to the technical field of processing of healthy foods.
With the development of economy in China, people's living standards are improved significantly, and people's demands for food safety and nutrition are increased urgently. At the same time, patients suffering from non-communicable chronic diseases and metabolic syndromes related to dietary structures and living habits are increased sharply. According to surveys, at present, the number of obese and overweight people in China is nearly 300 million, the number of people with impaired glucose tolerance is about 150 million, and the number of diabetics is higher than 90 million. A rapid rise trend of these chronic diseases and risk factors thereof has become a prominent problem affecting the health of people in China. The World Health Organization (WHO)'s assessment of the factors affecting human health shows that the effect of dietary nutrition factors (13%) on health is only lower to that of genetic factors (15%) and higher than that of medical factors (8%). Therefore, under the premise of ensuring food safety, dietary intervention and nutritional regulation have become the most urgent link to be improved in order to increase the health level and ensure and improve people's livelihood, and daily diet intervention is a key part.
As typical daily staple foods of Chinese residents and main sources of energy intake for the body, grains account for 55%-75% of total energy intake, and regulation of blood glucose metabolism and energy balance after a meal is directly affected by “quality” and “quantity”. At present, some sustained-release energy foods sold on the market achieve functions mainly by adding exogenous processed substances such as isomaltulose, arabinose, pullulan, acarbose and a white kidney bean extract, and the catalytic activity of digestive enzymes is partially inhibited by these products, so that the digestion and degradation rates of starch are reduced, and the phenomenon of a hypoglycemia peak occurs after a meal, however, clinical trials prove that metabolic syndromes such as insulin resistance and energy balance disorders are likely to be caused when large amounts of products mentioned above are eaten. Therefore, in order to solve the problems above, it is urgent to find a processing method of a grain-source nutritional food for special dietary uses with a high nutritional value and a low glycemic load (GL).
An objective of the disclosure is to provide a processing method of a grain-source nutritional food for special dietary uses with a high nutritional value, a good health care function and a low glycemic load.

Measurement of glycemic index (GI) and glycemic load (GL): GI and GL are calculated based on an increase in an area under a postprandial glucose response curve of a person eating 50 g of food, the glycemic concentration is determined by using a GOD-POD colorimetric method, and the glycemic load (GL) is a product of the mass of available carbohydrates in the food and a GI value.
A measurement method of 3-deoxyanthocyanidin: An Agilent 1200 HPLC system is adopted for analysis, a chromatographic column ZORBAX XDB which is 5 μm and 4.6*250 mm is used. A mobile phase A includes 1% formic acid, and a mobile phase B includes 80% methanol and 1% formic acid. Gradient elution involving 100% of A for 0-5 minutes and 100% of A to 20% of A and 80% of B for 5-50 minutes is adopted. The flow rate is 1 mL/min, the column temperature is 30° C., and the injection volume is 20 μL.
Measurement of the content of slowly digestible starch: An Englyst method is used, a to-be-tested sample and a mixed enzyme solution (a-amylase and glucoamylase) are subjected to an oscillation reaction at 160 r/min in a water bath at 37° C. for 20 minutes and 120 minutes under the condition of simulating in-vitro intestinal digestion (pH 5.2), 0.5 ml of a supernatant is taken, and the content of glucose is measured by using a GOD-POD colorimetric method. The content of slowly digestible starch is (G120-G20)*0.9/W, where G20 is the amount of glucose produced after hydrolysis for 20 minutes (mg); G120 is the amount of glucose produced after hydrolysis for 120 minutes (mg); W is the amount of the to-be-tested sample (mg).
