| Summary: | Introduction. Managing dietary pattern, including snack schedule, is one of the most important factors in maintaining blood
glucose levels in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Black glutinous rice tape is one of the foods that contains
bioactive nutrient and fiber beneficial to health. This study aimed to determine the effect of snack bars made from black
glutinous rice tape on fasting blood glucose levels in T2DM patients.
Methods. The study employed a quasi-experimental pre and post-test design with a control group which was conducted
among T2DM patients undergoing treatment at Bhayangkara Tk. II Sartika Asih Hospital, Bandung. The study was conducted
from October 2022 to January 2023 and involved a total of 22 subjects divided into two groups (treatment and control),
selected through the accidental sampling method. The treatment group received a daily intake of 3 x 30 grams sticky rice
tape snack bar for 7 days along with nutritional counseling, while the control group did not received the snack bar but
received nutritional counseling. Fasting blood glucose (FBG) levels were measured both before and after treatment, then
analyzed using a paired sample T-test. The difference in the treatment’s impact between the two groups was assessed using
the Wilcoxon test.
Results. Statistical analysis showed a reduction in the mean levels of FBG in the control group by 21.36 mg/dL (p=0.111) and
in the treatment group by 61.46 mg/dL (p=0.021). There was an impact of consuming black glutinous rice tape snack bars on the reduction of FBG levels in DMT2 patients, with a difference in FBG reduction between the control and treatment
groups of 40.10 mg/dL (p=0.018).
Conclusion. Administering 3 x 30 grams of black sticky rice tape snack bars for 7 days was effective in reducing the FBG
levels in T2DM patients. |
