Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to re-confirm the already established health effects and dose tolerance of Isomalto-oligosaccharide or IMO, which is a general health/functional food ingredient.


Clinical Trial Description

Isomalto-oligosaccharide (IMO) is a mixture of natural resistant carbohydrates consisting of short-chains of glucose molecules. IMO is made by enzymatic conversion of starch and uses as a health food ingredient with health benefits of a low calorie sweetener, prebiotic and dietary fiber. IMO have been ingested by humans for last many centuries as it is naturally found in rice miso, sake and soy sauce. IMO already got approval from FDA (GRAS) and from Health Canada.

There are number of published studies (in humans and animals) regarding the health benefits of IMO as an effective prebiotic, and its role in improving overall human gastric health. Studies also showed that IMO have found to be most tolerable with least adverse effects compared to other short-chain resistant oligosaccharides. Current clinical studies are conducted to verify the above given health benefits in BioNeutra's manufactured VitaSugar/VitaFiber-IMO products which including quantitative analysis of Bifidobacteria spp., Lactic acid bacteria group and clostridium spp. The production of short-chain fatty-acids (SCFA) and effect on blood glucose level are also analyzed in addition to the dose tolerance in term of lower and upper permissible dosage with resultant adverse effects if any are also observed. ;
