The study was conducted to determine the glycaemic index (GI) of corn noodles. The study was conducted on 14 healthy adult volunteers, applying the method according to TCVN 10036: 2013 (ISO 26642: 2010). Data were processed using Microsoft Excel software and the results were evaluated according to the prescribed standards. The results showed that the research product had a glycaemic index (GI) of 58.0. Corn noodles are classified as foods with an average glycaemic index. The product has the potential to be used as a supplement in daily meals for people who need to control blood sugar levels (pre-diabetics, obese people).
