Clinical Trial Summary

This dietary intervention study will assess the effect in healthy human volunteers of an E number which is a food additive and commonly used and consumed emulsifier, on gut function, gut inflammation and glucose metabolism. We will be using a powdered soy lecithin product in the food to compare a diet with and without this ingredient.


Clinical Trial Description

A dietary intervention study to investigate the effect, in healthy human volunteers, of dietary lecithin (soy lecithin), a commonly used/consumed emulsifier, on markers of gut function particularly bacterial translocation (assessed by measure of venous blood bacterial DNA, circulating lipopolysaccharide [LPS] binding protein and soluble CD14), gut inflammation (assessed by measurement of faecal calprotectin), gut microbiota activity/composition (faecal short-chain fatty acid [SCFA] profile and bacterial diversity [16S ribosomal RNA genes]) and glucose metabolism (measured by oral glucose tolerance test [OGGT], plasma fasted lipids and insulin). ;
