September 10, 2012 updated by: Javier Gonzalez, Northumbria University
The purpose of this study is to investigate the appetite, insulin and incretin hormone responses to a high-calcium meal.

Study Overview

Status

Completed

Intervention / Treatment

Detailed Description

Participants will be provided with control and high-calcium meals. Insulin, appetite, glucagon-like peptide-1 and glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide responses will be assessed, along with rates of substrate oxidation.
