This study shows that JA has great potential to be incorporated as a low GI nutrient in food formulations, improving the nutritional profile of food products as a whole. The results in this study revealed that the products containing JA had higher level of total dietary fibre and inulin with a lower level of carbohydrates, lipids and proteins. The low GI products were produced by incorporation of 80% of JA whilst medium GI products could be produced by incorporation of 30% and 60% of JA. All the products were considered to have desirable sensorial properties that would allow their consumption directly as breakfast cereals or snack products or to be milled to be used as an additive to other food products. Further work will investigate the extraction of inulin from JA and its potential to be incorporated as a low GI functional ingredient in more complex food matraces.
