Abstract
Wild blueberries, due to their high level of anthocyanines, may provide multiple health benefits including improved blood glucose (BG) control, however the consumption of fresh berries is limited by their short seasonal availability. Hydrothermodynamic (HTD) processing of whole berries is used to produce pasteurized drinkable puréed products with the amount of anthothyanins comparable with fresh berries. The objective of this study was to investigate glycaemic properties of drinkable puréed wild blueberries produced with HTD processing in young healthy adults. In a randomized controlled cross over, 25 healthy adults (12 females and 13 males) 23.3 ± 4.4 y with a BMI of 22.3 ± 2.2 kg/m2 attended two sessions on separate days. At each session, participants, after an overnight fast, were asked to consume one of two treatments equalized for their available carbohydrate content: (1) drinkable blueberry purée (150 g) and two slices (70 g) of white bread (196 kcal, 11.4 g sugar, 27.7 g starch, 5.3 g fiber, 6.8 g protein, and 0.2 g fat in the treatment), and (2) control: sweetened water (141.5 g water with 10 g of sucrose) and two slices (70 g) of white bread (187 kcal, 11.4 g sugar, 27.7 g starch, 1.8 g fiber, 6.3 g protein, and 0.2 g fat in the treatment). Blueberry drinkable purée was prepared from whole wild blueberries Vaccinium augustifolium using HTD processing at 95 °C for 2 min. Fresh purée was frozen at −20 °C and defrosted overnight before each session. The blood samples were collected before (fasting blood) and at 15, 30, 45, 60, 90, and 120 min after the treatment. BG was analyzed using YSI 2300 STAT Plus Glucose & Lactate Analyzer. There was no difference in baseline BG (P = 0.49). There was an effect of time (P < 0.05) but no effect of treatment on mean BG over 120 min (P = 0.6) or 60 min (P = 0.2), or on the incremental area under the curve (AUC) for BG over 120 min (P = 0.7) or over 60 min (P = 0.6). There was an effect of time (P < 0.0001) and treatment on mean BG (P = 0.01) and AUC for BG (P = 0.007) over 30 min. The BG was lower by 8.5% and 6.5% after the treatment with blueberry drinkable purée compared to the control at 15 and 30 min, respectively. Blueberry drinkable purée prepared using HTD processing and consumed with a high-carbohydrate food may provide benefits for blood glucose control over 30 min compared to the sugar-sweetened beverage of the same sugar content.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
