Filter by:The main objective of the current study is to investigate whether consumption of soluble fibers (isomaltodextrin [IMD], partially digestible maltodextrin) and RS4 starch will lower postprandial glycemia as well as postprandial insulin in human subjects with relatively high fasting blood glucose, when consumed with a specific amount of digestible carbohydrate (rice porridge). The primary outcome of the study is the effect of fibers on postprandial blood glucose, whereas the secondary outcome will be its effect on postprandial blood insulin.
Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is a lifelong disease which stops the body from producing insulin - an important hormone that controls blood sugar (glucose) levels. People with T1D use insulin replacement therapy, usually in the form of injections, to help control blood glucose levels, however keeping glucose levels within normal ranges is usually a challenge. Mealtime glucose control is fundamental to good diabetes management and are an important contributor to long-term diabetes complications. However, many individuals experience variability in glucose levels around mealtimes. The objective of this study is to establish whether and which parameters are important predictors of mealtime glucose levels in people with T1D. The investigators will monitor glucose levels using the latest glucose monitoring technology and collect blood samples to: 1. Characterise changes in glucose levels in individuals with T1D in response to different meals 2. Determine whether and what food characteristics and personal factors are linked to individual glucose responses to different meals. The investigators will recruit 150 individuals with type 1 diabetes. Firstly participants will attend a preliminary visit, where a blood sample will be donated to study laboratory blood markers of vascular and metabolic health accompanied by a full medical examination in which body composition will be established. During this visit participants will also complete questionnaires about their lifestyle, and be fitted with two wearable devices to monitor glucose levels and physical activity levels under free-living conditions. After 4-weeks of wearing the devices, participants will attend two experimental laboratory visits where breakfast and lunch will be served and blood samples taken. This will enable us to observe glucose and metabolic responses to feeding under controlled conditions.
Diet and nutrition are key to maintain human health. Westlake N-of-1 Trials for Macronutrient Intake (WE-MACNUTR) trial investigates individualized postprandial glycemic responses to different proportions of dietary fat and carbohydrates intake using an n-of-1 experimental study design. The experimental diets are isocaloric high fat, low carbohydrate (HF-LC) or low fat, high carbohydrate (LF-HC). With standardized intervention and strictly controlled eating behaviors, the WE-MACNUTR study identifies specific HC-responders and HF-responders in terms of postprandial glucose response. This is a follow-up study offered to participants who have completed the WE-MACNUTR study in 2019. Volunteers will be asked to participate in four 5-d periods while wearing glucose monitors (Abbott Freestyle Libre) with the following experimental sequence: 1) a washout diet, 2) HF-LC or LC-HF diet, 3) a washout diet, 4) HF-LC or LC-HF diet. The experimental diet will be randomly assigned. Participants will be asked to provide a fasted blood sample and to collect fecal, urine and saliva samples at each visits.
Repeated, elevated levels of glucose (sugar) within the blood after eating can lead to type 2 diabetes. In adults, eating breakfast lowers blood glucose responses to subsequent meals when compared with skipping breakfast. Yet, adolescent girls may respond differently due to differences in how their bodies use energy. This is important because around 80% of the United Kingdom (UK) adolescent girls skip breakfast. As common reasons for skipping breakfast in adolescent girls are 'lack of time' and 'not hungry' in the morning, eating breakfast during the mid-morning may be an attractive option for them. This project will be the first to compare the impact of eating breakfast in the early morning and mid-morning with skipping breakfast on subsequent blood glucose levels in adolescent girls who usually skip breakfast. The findings will inform recommendations tailored to an 'at risk' and under-researched population for type 2 diabetes prevention, which is more effective than a cure.
There is some evidence to suggest that the timing of a meal intake directly impacts postprandial insulin and glucose responses, with meals consumed later during the day being more metabolically detrimental that the same meals consumed during the day. This information is particularly pertinent to the 16% of people employed in shift-work professions in Australia who have little choice but to eat during the late evening and overnight. The purpose of this study is to compare two effect of different meals or snacks (control vs test meal) on blood glucose and insulin at night time in healthy adults. This study will enable to develop suitable meals to consume at night time that can reduce the higher glucose and insulin responses that are a consequence of eating late into the night.
Randomised crossover trial to compare early vs late walking on postprandial glycaemic response at night time.
Fibersym® is a RS4-type resistant modified wheat starch in which over 85% of the total starch is resistant starch as measured by AOAC method 991.43. It is meant to be consumed on a regular basis and doses up to 33g/day can be tolerated. The effect of a Fibersym-containing meal on postprandial glucose and insulin levels when compared to a control meal, where both meals contain the same amount of available carbohydrate, is not known. This study therefore investigated the acute effect of a Fibersym cookie and a control cookie matched for available carbohydrate after a 3-day habituation period.
The overall objective of this study is to explore the glycemic index and glycemic load induced by an alcohol-free beer with modified composition (including almost full fermentation of carbohydrates and the addition of isomaltulose and a resistant maltodextrin), as well as its postprandial metabolic response, compared to the effect induced by: a) an alcohol-free beer with a usual composition; b) an alcohol-free beer with modified composition (including almost full fermentation of carbohydrates and the addition of a resistant maltodextrin). This study includes two cross-over sub-studies recruiting healthy participants. In the first one, 10 healthy volunteers receive 25 g of carbohydrates coming from: regular alcohol-free beer (RB), alcohol-free beer with almost completely eliminated maltose and enriched with isomaltulose (2.5 g/100 mL) and a resistant maltodextrin (0.8 g/100 mL) (IMB), alcohol-free beer with the same maltose removal enriched with resistant maltodextrin (2.0 g/100 mL) (MB) and glucose solution. In the second study, 20 healthy volunteers are provided with 50 g of carbohydrates from white bread and water and the same meal plus 14.3 g of carbohydrates coming from: RB, IMB, MB and extra white bread. Blood is sampled at baseline and for 2 h, every 15 min, after ingestion.
This randomized crossover trial will investigate the metabolic responses following the consumption of a bagel+juice meal under 3 conditions: control, fiber (positive control), and postmeal walk in15 healthy adults. It is hypothesized that the postmeal walk will reduce glycemia, insulinemia, and oxidative stress similar to fiber.
Breakfast consumption (BC) is frequently associated with a healthy lifestyle, healthy body weight and favourable cardiometabolic health. Research from studies in adults suggests that breakfast skipping causes elevated plasma glucose and insulin concentrations after lunch. However, there is currently no evidence to suggest a similar metabolic response in adolescent girls, a population that frequently skips breakfast. The primary purpose of this study is to examine the effects of BC versus breakfast omission (BO) on metabolic responses after lunch in healthy adolescent girls.
