Effects of Resistant Starch in a Beverage on Post-prandial Glycemic and Insulinemic Responses

June 11, 2014 updated by: Wayne Campbell, Purdue University
Hypothesis: A beverage with a resistant starch will blunt and sustain the post-prandial rise in blood glucose and insulin concentrations compared to beverage with maltodextrin (an easily digested carbohydrate).

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

  • About two-thirds of adults in the United States are overweight or obese which can cause adverse health consequences for those individuals. Post-prandial hyperglycemia is one of these possible consequences and is associated with a higher risk for Type 2 Diabetes. Controlling hyperglycemia is important in the prevention of the onset of diabetes and obesity. Resistant starch is a dietary carbohydrate which is not completely digested in the gut and produces energy for the body to use. The investigators are interested in assessing the effects of resistant starch on postprandial blood glucose and insulin concentrations.
  • Aim: To assess the effects of a resistant starch on post-prandial blood glucose and insulin concentrations.
  • Hypothesis: A beverage with a resistant starch will blunt and sustain the post-prandial rise in blood glucose and insulin concentrations compared to a beverage with maltodextrin (an easily digested carbohydrate).

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years to 29 years (Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Yes

Genders Eligible for Study

All

  • Thirty healthy men and women (aged 18-29y) will be recruited from the greater Lafayette, IN region with the expectation that ≥20 subjects will complete the study. Subjects must weigh >110 pounds, with a BMI between 20.0 and 29.9.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Weight change > 3kg in the past 3 months
  • Exercising vigorously over the past 3 months as well as no exercise 3 days prior to testing day

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
Experimental: Resistant starch
The test beverage consumed has the resistant starch.
Dietary supplement: Resistant Starch
Each subject will complete 2 testing days (randomized and crossover design). On each of 2 test days, subjects will arrive at the Purdue Clinical Research Center after a 12-h fast and will consume a beverage containing resistant starch. The test beverage will be consumed along with a standard meal provided at the start of the test day. A second standard meal that does not contain the beverage will be consumed four hours later. Below is what will be included in the test bar.
Experimental: Control
The control beverage uses maltodextrin rather than the resistant starch.
Dietary supplement: Control
Each subject will complete 2 testing days (randomized and crossover design). On each of 2 test days, subjects will arrive at the Purdue Clinical Research Center after a 12-h fast and will consume a beverage containing maltodextrin. The test beverage will be consumed along with a standard meal provided at the start of the test day. A second standard meal that does not contain the beverage will be consumed four hours later. Below is what will be included in the test bar.
