Intake of foods upon thermal treatment is typically associated with an elevated postprandial glycemic response, which is one of the risk factors for type 2 diabetes development and progression. In this study, rice starch was thermally treated using aqueous phase (boil), air phase (bake), and lipid phase (fry). Peak blood glucose levels in C57 mice increased by 16.94 %, 12.60 %, and 8.1 % after ingestion of thermally treated starch (20.23, 19.48, and 18.70 mmol/L), compared with raw starch (17.30 mmol/L). The insulin response to the intake of thermally treated starch increased (4.73 %-6.83 % higher than the control), whereas the concentration of GLP-1, a hormone used to promote insulin secretion, decreased (1.54 %-8.56 % lower than the control). Furthermore, thermally treated starch accelerated food absorption by enhancing gastrointestinal digestion, exacerbating postprandial glucose fluctuation at the next meal. Structural characterization showed thermal treatment reduced starch branching density and degree of structure order, which were not conducive to preventing the attack of enzymes. During digestion, they were highly hydrolyzed into low-molecular-weight fragments, and the proportion of ultrashort chains substantially increased. These findings provide a better understanding of the fine structure of starch that promotes hypoglycemia and initially explain how diets high in thermally treated starch impair glucose balance.
