Effects of Plant Based Lipids on Glucose Regulation and Cognitive Variables

April 27, 2022 updated by: Anne Nilsson, Lund University

Evaluation of Potentially Bioactive Foods With Respect to Cardiometabolic- and Cognitive Test Variables

The overall goal is to increase the knowledge that can be used for the development of food products with anti-diabetic properties, with the purpose to facilitate healthier food choices for people. More specifically the primary purpose of this project is to evaluate effects in healthy humans on acute postprandial glucose regulation of plant based lipids. Due to the tight connection between cardiometabolic health and cognitive functions, a secondary issue is to investigate effects of test foods on cognitive test variables and mood parameters.

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Other: WWB Reference
White wheat bread (WWB) without lipid supplements. The effects of this high glycaemic product on postprandial glucose and insulin responses are well studied.
Investigations of dose-response effects of 3 different doses of an bioactive plant based lipid consumed at breakfast, after overnight fasting. Total amounts of lipids in each test portion are 15g, and the lower doses are supplemented with a control lipid to sum upp to 15 g total lipids. A control product with15g control lipids and without active lipids is also included. The lipids are supplemented to a white wheat bread, corresponding to 50 g available starch. A White wheat bread portion without lipid supplementation is included as a well studied reference product.
Experimental: WWB 5g active lipids
WWB supplemented with 5 g active lipids, and 10 g control lipids
Investigations of dose-response effects of 3 different doses of an bioactive plant based lipid consumed at breakfast, after overnight fasting. Total amounts of lipids in each test portion are 15g, and the lower doses are supplemented with a control lipid to sum upp to 15 g total lipids. A control product with15g control lipids and without active lipids is also included. The lipids are supplemented to a white wheat bread, corresponding to 50 g available starch. A White wheat bread portion without lipid supplementation is included as a well studied reference product.
