Apurva Dhamgunde | Dr. Rupali Sengupta

Abstract: Diabetes is a group of metabolic diseases characterized by hyperglycaemia resulting from defects in insulin secretion, insulin action, or both. Many Indians prefer masala sev as their evening snack but as the Traditional masala sev is deep fried which is not healthy for a type-2 diabetic individual so to make it healthy this masala sev was modified. Modified masala sev when compared with the traditional masala sev is not only more adequate for diabetes but also more nutritious. After designing this product, sensory evaluation was conducted by 14 naive panel members and 5 expert panel members using 5 point ranking scale. The product was standardised. The product is of low GI and fat content.
