The goal of this clinical trial is to test whether one minute of stair stepping at a comfortable pace can reduce blood sugar after meals. The main objectives of the study are: Compare continuously measured post-meal glucose after stair-stepping to control condition Compare continuously measured post-meal glucose after stair-stepping between meals Assess interaction between condition and meal to determine if the effect of stair-stepping on post-meal glucose depends on meal Participants will be in the study for 10 days and will be asked to: Wear a continuous glucose monitor over the course of the study Perform either one minute of comfortable pace stair stepping 15 min after each meal OR no exercise 1 hour after eating a meal on alternating days Perform a dietary recall every two days Perform no exercise within one hour after each meal on any day during the study Consume no calories within one hour after each meal during the study
NCT04820322
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.
NCT06365385
Emerging evidence suggests that following a 'carbohydrate-last meal pattern', wherein foods rich in protein, fat, fiber, and/or polyphenols are consumed before sources of simple carbohydrate (CHO) in a meal, results in reduced postprandial glycaemic responses than the reverse food order or a co-ingestion pattern. This effect has been observed across the spectrum of glucose tolerance, from patients with diabetes to individuals with normal glucose tolerance (Kuwata et al., 2016; Nishino et al., 2018; Lu et al., 2019; Sun et al., 2020). Furthermore, reduced glucose excursions have been linked to decreased subsequent hunger and energy intake (Lu et al., 2019; Wyatt et al., 2021). However, to date, no studies on food intake sequence have targeted athletes, despite their increased CHO demands (Thomas et al., 2016) which could expose them to repeated episodes of hyperglycaemia and high glycaemic variability, known to increase the risk of adverse cardiovascular outcomes and all-cause mortality (Loader et al., 2015; Cavero-Redondo et al., 2017; Faerch et al., 2018). Additionally, athletes often face pressure to meet body composition standards and may benefit from strategies that enhance satiety and craving control. Finally, there is reason to believe that better glycaemic control could lead to improved performance, given that enhancements in endurance activities have been observed with a low-glycemic-index diet compared to a high-glycemic-index diet (Heung-Sang Wong et al., 2017). Therefore, this randomised crossover trial is part of a wider project which seeks to explore the impact of food intake sequence on metabolic health and performance in athletes. Specifically, this trial aims to investigate the acute, postprandial metabolic and appetite responses to consuming an identical meal in two intake sequences (CHO-last versus CHO-first) in athletes, while in the resting state.
NCT04965896
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.

Determine the effect of feet and calf heating on glucose tolerance relative to thermoneutral control. Heat will be administered using hot water (40 degrees celsius).
NCT06253728
The overall objective of this research is to determine the digestive faith and health impact of protein and fiber rich foods in different food matrices in type 2 diabetes risk population. This is achieved by controlled postprandial intervention where plasma amino acids, lipids, glucose metabolism, bile acids and microbial metabolites are evaluated as well as fecal microbiota and metabolites.
NCT05581043
Hyperglycemia following meals in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a common problem. Recently, our group found that oral consumption of the ketone metabolite, 3-hydroxybutyrate (3-OHB), effectively stimulates insulin secretion and delays gastric emptying.The aim of this study is to investigate the dose/response relationship between 3-OHB servings of 0, 10, 20 and 40 grams 30 minutes before an OGTT and, ii) investigate the role of timing by serving 20 grams of 3-OHB at different timepoints ahead of an OGTT (0, 30 and 60 minutes)
NCT05231642
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.
NCT05619952
The goal of this clinical trial is to determine the acute effects on postprandial lipemia and glycemia by supplementing a high-fat meal with either white button (WB) or shiitake (SH) mushroom powder in relatively healthy adults, aged 18 to 35.
NCT04476693
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.
NCT05349916
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.
NCT04234763
Postprandial hyperglycemia is a hallmark feature of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2D), and persistent elevated glycemic level has shown to be strongly associated with oxidative stress, and a risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD). In Malaysia, the glycemic control is poor and patients with T2D commonly experiencing persistent postprandial hyperglycemia (12.7 mmol/L). A low glycemic index (GI) meal has been reported to reduce postprandial glycemia and insulin concentration in patients with T2D. Metabolomics technique can be used to identify comprehensive metabolites in response to different diet. Till date, local scientific data documented on the role and interaction between diet and metabolites for the Malaysian patients with T2D is unknown. This study is to determine the postprandial metabolomic effect of low and high GI meals in patients with T2D using the NMR-based metabolomics approach. Then, patients with T2D will be assigned for 14 days of chronic feeding trial intervention. This study will help to establish local baseline data and understand the impact of meal-patterns on metabolic and metabolite at postprandial responses.
NCT03899974
The amylose-amylopectin ratio influences starch properties. A higher amylose content is associated with slower starch digestion thus reducing the postprandial plasma glucose response and improving the overall postprandial metabolism. So far, limited evidence is available on the metabolic effect of wheat-based foods rich in amylose. This randomised controlled study investigated the acute metabolic effects of amylose-rich wheat-based breads in overweight subjects focusing on potential mechanisms.
NCT04144920
This study aims to determine the most effective strategy of reducing sedentary behavior to improve health. Specifically, we aim to answer the following questions: (a) To determine if there is a significant difference in acute post-prandial glucose response between continuous sitting and two intermittent standing regimes (high frequency, low duration breaks (HFLD) and low frequency, high duration breaks (LFHD)). We hypothesize that intermittent standing (combined HFLD breaks and LFHD breaks regimes) will result in lower overall acute post-prandial glucose compared to continuous sitting. (b) To determine if there is a significant difference in acute post-prandial glucose response between two strategies to reduce sitting with standing (HFLD standing breaks vs. LFHD standing breaks). We hypothesize that the HFLD breaks condition will elicit lower acute post-prandial glucose level compared to the LFHD breaks condition. All eligible participants will be consented and subjected to all three study conditions: (i) Uninterrupted sitting, (ii) HFLD breaks, and (iii) LFHD breaks. The order at which participants were subjected to these conditions will be randomly determined and each condition were performed a week apart. Standardized meals (breakfast and lunch) will be provided during each lab visit and participants will be then be asked to perform their usual work activity using a sit-stand workstation in the lab. Depending on their assigned condition, the participants will be prompted to stand or sit for a given period of time. A continuous glucose monitor will be used to measure glucose response to the intervention while an activPAL device will be used to make sure that participants are compliant with the study protocol.
NCT03552315
It has previously been shown in healthy subjects, that a carbonated water containing a mix of amino acids and chromium picolinate can decrease postprandial blood glucose. Based on these findings, a flavored sparkling water product called Good Idea® with a proprietary blend of five amino acids and chromium picolinate has been developed. This product, along with an identical placebo, are included in this study to evaluate the effects on postprandial blood glucose in healthy, overweight adults when consumed with a standardized, high glycemic test meal. The study will be conducted in a cross-over design, double-blinded and placebo controlled, including 45 participants. The primary endpoint of the study is the incremental area under the curve (iAUC) for capillary blood glucose within 180 minutes after ingestion of the meal.
NCT03400774
This study aims to investigate the effect of moderate intensity stair-climbing bouts of various durations on postprandial blood glucose. Participants will perform a standard oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) using 75g of dextrose and with fingerstick blood glucose measurements at baseline and every 15 minutes after consuming the drink for one hour. On separate subsequent visits, participants will perform the same OGTT combined with three stair-climbing bouts lasting 1, 3, and 10 minutes starting 27, 25, and 18 minutes respectively after finishing the drink. Participants performed maximal aerobic capacity (VO2max) using a ramp treadmill test in order to assess the relative intensity of each stairclimbing trial.
NCT03374501
This study was a partly controlled laboratory-based study comparing the glycemic and insulinemic indices of 3 test meals containing soft drink alone or with SUGARDOWN™ (Galactomannan) in overweight adults.
NCT03159065
Consumption of polyphenol-rich fruits and vegetables may improve the postprandial glucose and insulin responses and hence promote well-being. It has previously been observed that consumption of a bilberry drink decreases the postprandial insulin demand. In the present study, the impact of probiotic fruit beverages with different polyphenol profiles on the postprandial levels of glucose and insulin, were investigated.
NCT00930956
