Study Summary

This is a pilot study to demonstrate the effect of purple rice on post-prandial glucose and insulin. The purple color is due, like red wine grapes, mainly to the anthocyanins. The safety and tolerability of purple rice is similar to white or brown rice, but contains the purple elements common to other foods like grapes.

Primary Outcome

Subjects will have an Intravenous line placed and fasting blood will be drawn. Subjects will then be given glucose to drink and blood will be drawn from an IV line for glucose and insulin.
