The purpose of this study was to determine the difference in the glycemic response of high and low aerobic fitness men to glucose, and one novel slow and fast digestible carbohydrate (CHO). The glycemic index (GI) value of both novel CHO was determined for the high (n = 6) and low (n = 6) aerobic fitness men. Overall, GI values were 76.44±16.02 for the fast CHO and 48.96 ±17.30 for the slow CHO. Between the high and low fitness men the GI differed significantly, the fast CHO was found to be 86.71±16.15 and 66.17±7.12 and the slow CHO was found to be 59.13±8.50 and 38.79±18.38, for the low and high fitness men respectively. The glycemic response was significantly different among the trials (glucose, fast and slow CHO, p = .0001). The GI of the novel CHO (fast and slow CHO)depended upon the aerobic fitness level of healthy young men.
