Clinical Trial Summary

This study will investigate how maternal emotional state following a controlled stress exposure in pregnancy influences blood glucose and insulin levels after eating a standardized meal, and whether the effects of emotional state on blood glucose and insulin is different after eating a healthy meal (low GI) compared to a less healthy meal (high GI).


Clinical Trial Description

Maternal glucose-insulin homeostasis in pregnancy represents one of the most important physiological processes for maternal and child health outcomes. Although maternal diet is a key regulator of this process, its effects vary widely across individuals. Maternal stress could represent a moderator of considerable importance in this regard, yet little is known about the effects of stress on glycemic control in pregnancy and whether the effects of stress may vary as a function of diet quality. This project will investigate the effects of acute psychosocial stress exposure on the postprandial metabolic response to a meal of varying glycemic index (GI) among women with overweight/obesity in mid-pregnancy. ;
