The product, which went on sale for the first time at 2,000 high-street bakeries last weekend, is said to stabilise glycaemia levels while at the same time increasing the feeling of being full.
Optimatin looks like an ordinary 250-gramme baguette except that it has been baked in the form of six, ready-to-cut portions with the recommendation that three (portions) be eaten at breakfast, two at lunch and one at evening meal.
Subjected to 300 clinical trials over a three-year period, Optimatin development was boosted by a grant of €14,000 (US$18,240) from French agency ANVAR, which promotes and finances innovation in small businesses.
