Influence of Resistant Starch Intake in Potatoes on Blood Glucose and Satiety Responses in Overweight Females

September 12, 2019 updated by: Mindy Patterson Maziarz, Texas Woman's University

Influence of Resistant Starch in Baked and Boiled Potatoes on Glycemic and Satiety Responses in Overweight Females

Resistant starch (RS) is a type of fiber that has unique digestive properties that can impact overall health including glucose homeostasis and satiety. RS found in potatoes can be increased by using certain cooking methods and serving temperatures. The purpose of this trial will compare the acute glycemic and satiety responses after consuming potatoes differing in RS content that are 1) baked then chilled or 2) boiled and consumed hot in overweight females on two separate occasions.

Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Potatoes are a low-cost, nutrient-dense dietary staple in the U.S. rich in complex carbohydrates, potassium, magnesium, and fiber, but low in fat and sodium. Starch is the main complex carbohydrate found in potatoes that yields glucose to contribute to overall energy needs. Another type of starch found in potatoes is resistant to amylase hydrolysis in the small intestine which is resistant starch (RS). Trials using RS as a functional ingredient (~15-30 g/day) in healthy and overweight adults resulted in improvements in postprandial glucose, insulin sensitivity, satiety hormone response, and subjective satiety. Limited data exists using RS naturally found in commonly consumed foods, such as potatoes. Altering the cooking methods and serving temperatures of potatoes can influence the amount of RS to impact glucose, satiety hormone response, and subjective satiety. Using a cross-sectional, cross-over design, the aim of this study will determine how potatoes 1) baked and chilled or 2) boiled and consumed hot influence postprandial glycemic parameters, satiety hormones (glucagon-like peptide-1, peptide YY, and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide), subjective satiety, and subsequent energy intake in overweight females.

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.

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: Baked, consumed chilled potatoes
Other: Potatoes
Participants will follow the same protocol for each arm with a minimum of 1-week wash-out period between arms. For each arm, fasting blood will be collected then 200 g of potato will be consumed. Postprandial blood will be collected 15, 30, 60, and 120 minutes. Subjective satiety will be assessed using Visual Analogue Scale three times, as well as 48-hour subsequent dietary intake.
Experimental: Boiled, consumed hot potatoes
Other: Potatoes
Participants will follow the same protocol for each arm with a minimum of 1-week wash-out period between arms. For each arm, fasting blood will be collected then 200 g of potato will be consumed. Postprandial blood will be collected 15, 30, 60, and 120 minutes. Subjective satiety will be assessed using Visual Analogue Scale three times, as well as 48-hour subsequent dietary intake.
