Dysglucaemia is treated and/or prevented by the administration of granulated starch, enzymatically degraded and releasing reducing sugars at a rate, adjusted to the metabolism of the patient, suffering from dysglucaemia. For example nocturnal hypoglycaemia in diabetic patients is prevented by administering to said patients a granulate or tablets comprising granulated cornstarch, and preferably also heat treated cornstarch and a low calorie sweetener. The inventive granulation minimises the available surface area and retards the enzymatic degradation of the cornstarch and ensures a controlled, e.g. a substantially linear release of reducing sugars, such as glucose, and a stable blood glucose level during several hours. The granulate or tablets are low in calories and contain no free sugar.

La dysglycémie est traitée et/ou prévenue par l'administration de granulés d'amidon qui se dégradent par voie enzymatique et qui libèrent des sucres réducteurs à un taux adapté au métabolisme du patient qui souffre de dyglycémie. Par exemple, l'hypoglycémie nocturne des patients diabétiques est prévenue par l'administration à ces patients de granulés ou de comprimés contenant des granulés d'amidon de maïs, et de préférence, aussi d'amidon de maïs traité thermiquement et un édulcorant à basse teneur en calories. Les granulés selon l'invention réduisent au minimum la surface disponible et ralentissent la dégradation enzymatique de l'amidon de maïs, assurant ainsi une libération contrôlée, notamment sensiblement linéaire, des sucres réducteurs, tels que le glucose, et un niveau de glycémie stable pendant plusieurs heures. Les granulés ou comprimés sont pauvres en calories et sont dépourvus de sucre.
