Filter by:BACKGROUND GLP1 booster (GB) was designed to stimulate the endogenous production of GLP1, which in turn releases insulin, controls blood glucose level, suppresses appetite and thus helps people lose weight. PURPOSE The purpose of this study is to assess several clinical endpoints and questionnaires in healthy volunteers taking the new GB formula. SCOPE The scope of this protocol covers the non-clinical portion as well as the assessment of several clinical endpoints and questionnaires. In brief, the non-clinical design will be an open-label study involving volunteers taking GB everyday for 12 weeks. Data analysis will involve measuring the clinical endpoints across the group at different timepoints.
The rare sugar D-Allulose, when consumed in a drink before eating has been shown to reduce the blood glucose response to high carbohydrate drinks or meals in people who are healthy, or have elevated fasting blood glucose concentration. However, the effectiveness of D-allulose to suppress blood glucose concentration when added into carbohydrate containing food products has not been previously reported and as the potential use of allulose is as a sucrose replacer in foods, rather than drinks, it is important that effects and efficacy are tested in this format. The study aimed to extend understanding of the acute effects of D-allulose consumption in humans by testing whether post-eating blood glucose concentration can be modified by the presence of D-allulose in a high carbohydrate breakfast and collecting data on any adverse gastrointestinal effects of consuming D-allulose.
The goal of this prospective, observational study is to compare in the association of glycemic control and retinal microvascular changes in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) without diabetic retinopathy (DR). The main question it aims to answer are: • Do degenerative changes in retinal microvasculature or nerves depend on glycemic control even before diabetic retinopathy is detected? Participants will receive an annual routine comprehensive examination including ultra-widefield fundus photography, spectral domain optical coherence tomography (OCT), and swept-source optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA).
Citrus bioflavonoids, such as eriocitrin, hesperidin and naringin, have been shown improved hyperglycemia, insulin resistance and systemic inflammation, related to the development of type 2 diabetes. The nutraceutical Eriomin, a lemon flavonoid extract composed mainly by eriocitrin (70%) and other flavonoids (30%), improved the control of moderate hyperglycemia in pre-diabetic and diabetic patients without drug therapy. However, most patients with pre-diabetes are on oral biguanide (metformin) therapy, despite its limited efficacy (30-40%) on glycemic control and its undesirable gastrointestinal effects. Therefore, in the current study, Eriomin will be administered at a dose of 250 mg/d to adults diagnosed with pre-diabetes and being treated with metformin (1,000 mg/d). This clinical trial was designed as a placebo-control, double-blind, two-arm, crossover design. Clinical characteristics, body composition, food consumption, metabolic and inflammatory biomarkers and the microbiota of all patients will be evaluated before, during and at the end of the 12-week period (arm). Biochemical and metabolic parameters associated with prediabetes are expected to improve or return to normal with Eriomin in combination with metformin. At the same time, an increase in beneficial intestinal bacteria is expected, reducing pre-diabetic dysbiosis, and perhaps a noticeable improvement in body composition.
Brief Summary: Ketones are a source of energy and signaling molecule that are produced by the body when not consuming any food or consistently eating a low-carbohydrate "keto" diet. Blood ketones can be used as a source of energy by the body, but they may also act as signals that impact how different cells in the body function. Recently, ketone supplements have been developed that can be consumed as a drink. These supplements can raise blood ketones without having to fast or eat a "keto" diet. Previous studies have shown that these supplement drinks can lower blood sugar without having to make any other dietary changes. Drinking these ketone supplements may therefore be an effective strategy to improve blood sugar control and influence how cells function. To find out if it is feasible for people with type 2 diabetes to drink these ketones supplements regularly over 90 days, we will compare between two groups in this study: one group that will be asked to drink ketone supplements, and one group that will be asked to drink a placebo supplement.
This study will examine the effects of type II diabetes on cognitive functions and mood in middle-aged patients. In addition, the association between cognitive functions and glycemic controls is studied in patients. Sixty patients and sixty healthy controls will be recruited and assessed by a multiprofessional team (neuropsychologist, physician).
In a randomized controlled trial we will research the effect of calorie restriction with early and mid-day time-restricted eating (TRE) and daily calorie restriction on weight loss and human health parameters. Participants will be divided into three groups: early time-restriction group (8:00 AM to 4:00 PM), mid-day restriction group (1:00 PM to 9:00 PM) and daily calorie restriction group (8:00 AM to 9:00 PM). Participants will follow dietary strategy with three planned meals and calorie restriction. Anthropometrical and biochemical parameters will be measured at baseline, after one month, two months and at after three months of intervention. Resting metabolic rate, ultrasound scan of abdomen and ultrasound scan of carotid arteries will be measured at baseline and after three months of intervention. In addition, stool samples will be also taken at baseline and after three months of intervention.
Diabetes is one of the biggest public health challenges of the 21st century because of the costs associated with its management, which are estimated at more than three billion dollars per year in Quebec. This cost has been growing steadily for 20 years now. A person with controlled diabetes mobilizes three times more medical resources than a person without diabetes (Diabetes Quebec, 2009). This amount increases rapidly with the associated complications. Therapeutic carbohydrate restriction (in an omnivorous context) used specifically to control glycemia is being studied more and more, but has never been verified in a vegan context. Some studies show that a vegan diet could be an effective way to help type 2 diabetics (T2DM) to better manage their blood sugar. Thus, it is necessary to question whether these effects can be accentuated in the context of a low or very low carbohydrate diet. Numerous publications have highlighted the role of the gut microbiota in metabolic diseases, including T2DM. Analysis of the microbiome before and after dietary change combined with daily breath testing will tell us more about possible intolerances and the role of the microbiome in T2DM management. Given the novelty of these hypotheses and its absence in the literature, it is relevant to undertake a first pilot project with a smaller number of participants in order to obtain preliminary data that will allow us to define more precisely the research avenues for a subsequent study.
Design and methods 12 athletes with T1D and 12 healthy athletes are included in a prospective experimental randomized, cross-over study. Athletes are provided with a Dexcom G6 CGM to measure glucose excursions before, during and after exercise and a Holter ECG-E-patch to measure HRV. Psychological stress levels are assessed from Competitive State Anxiety Inventory-2. The athletes are studied on two occasions: Day 1: 5K running competition and Day 2: 5K high intensity training session (running) in the athletes' regular training environment. Endpoints Primary endpoints: Change in plasma glucose from start of exercise to end of exercise during competition compared to training. Secondary endpoints: Hormonal response (cortisol, adrenalin, noradrenaline). Changes in heart rate and HRV before, during and after exercise. CGM-glucose and plasma glucose discrepancies.
Patients with diabetes have an increased risk of sudden cardiac death compared to the general population. Severe hypoglycemia is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular (CV) disease (CVD) and events, including cardiac arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death; likewise, increased glycemic variability is associated with macrovascular complications and increased mortality. The physiological mechanisms linking hypoglycemia and glycemic variability to CVD and CV events remain unclear. Myocardial work and mechanical dyssynchrony will be measured by speckle tracking echocardiography during euglycemia, hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia in individuals with type 1 diabetes, type 2 diabetes, and without diabetes. Echocardiographic images from three experimental clamp studies - Hypo-Heart 1 (sub-study 1), Hypo-Heart 2 (sub-study 2) and Rapid-Heart - will be included in this study.
