White chickpea sundal (kabuli chana)

Measured glycemic index 24.1 ± 2.6 — low — from Indian J Med Res 2022.

Reported value — glycemic index

24.1± 2.6 SD

White chickpea sundal (kabuli chana) was assayed at 24.1 ± 2.6 against glucose as 100, which places it in the low band on the published divisions. The preparation tested was described as “White chickpea sundal”.

For a 100 g bowl, carrying about 22.3 g of available carbohydrate, the glycemic load works out at about 5.4 — low for that portion.

The band describes the food. It is a group mean from a feeding study, not a prediction of what this food will do in your blood.

How a glycemic index is assayed

Volunteers eat a portion of the test food containing exactly 50 g of available carbohydrate — whatever weight of that food that turns out to be.
Their blood glucose is sampled repeatedly over the following two hours, and the area under that curve is measured.
The same people are tested against 50 g of pure glucose, which scores 100 by definition. The test food's area is expressed as a percentage of it.
The published value is the group mean, and it carries a standard deviation — several of the Indian values on this site have one of five points or more.
Nothing in that sequence can be shortcut. A glycemic index cannot be derived from a composition table, so a food with no study has no glycemic index here.

GI  = (area under the food's 2 h glucose curve
       / area under 50 g glucose) x 100
GL  = GI x available carbohydrate in the portion (g) / 100
Bands: low 0-55 | medium 56-69 | high 70+

The measured value

The published glycemic index for White chickpea sundal (kabuli chana), exactly as the study reported it. GI TABLES · JUL 2026
Glycemic index (glucose = 100)	24.1 ± 2.6
Category	Low — 55 or less
Preparation tested	White chickpea sundal
Available carbohydrate reported	22.3 g per 100 g
Glycemic load, a 100 g bowl	5.4 (low)
Measured by	Shobana S, Geetha G, Ramya Bai M, et al. Carbohydrate profiling & glycaemic indices of selected traditional Indian foods. Indian J Med Res 2022;155(1):56–65.

Glycemic load arithmetic: 24.1 × 22.3 g ÷ 100 = 5.4. The carbohydrate figure comes from the same study, so the calculation stays inside one dataset.

Scope of this record

What this page is not saying

It is not saying white chickpea sundal (kabuli chana) is good or bad for blood sugar, and it is not recommending or discouraging it. No food treats diabetes and no food causes it on its own. Meals are eaten in combination, portions differ, and people differ.

If you have diabetes, prediabetes, or a result that worries you, what belongs on your plate is a conversation with a doctor or a registered dietitian who has seen your reports.

ಈ ವರದಿ ನಿರೀಕ್ಷಿಸುವ ಪ್ರಶ್ನೆಗಳು

What is the glycemic index of white chickpea sundal (kabuli chana)?

24.1 (± 2.6) against glucose as 100, which is low. It was measured in Indian J Med Res 2022, where the tested preparation was described as "White chickpea sundal". Cooking method and what else is on the plate both move the real-world response.

What is the glycemic load of white chickpea sundal (kabuli chana)?

About 5.4 for a 100 g bowl — 24.1 × 22.3 g of available carbohydrate ÷ 100. That is a low glycemic load for that portion.

Is white chickpea sundal (kabuli chana) good for diabetes?

This site does not answer that, for any food. No food treats diabetes, and what belongs on your plate depends on your results, your medicines and your circumstances — which is a conversation with a doctor or a registered dietitian, not a web page.

General information only — NOT medical advice, and never a diagnosis. Only a doctor can interpret your results and diagnose or treat diabetes. If a reading concerns you, see a doctor rather than a website. Every threshold, equation and glycemic index value used on this site is listed with its publication on the ದತ್ತಾಂಶ & ವಿಧಾನ ಪುಟ, ಮತ್ತು ಪ್ರತಿ ಪ್ರಕಟಣೆಯನ್ನು ಅದರ ಪ್ರಕಟಣಾ ಸಂಸ್ಥೆ ಮತ್ತು ದಿನಾಂಕದೊಂದಿಗೆ ಪಟ್ಟಿ ಮಾಡಲಾಗಿದೆ ಆಕರ ದಾಖಲೆ.
