Brief summary
As part of National Science Challenge (NSC) - High Value Nutrition (HVN) Metabolic program, the trial will investigate the efficacy of 500 mg rutin, in a double blind randomised 3arm placebo controlled parallel study over 6 months in male and female participants, with demonstrated prediabetes (fasting plasma glucose: = 5.6-6.9mmol/ L). Each participant will be required to consume once daily either: yogurt control + capsule control OR yogurt with 500 mg rutin + capsule control OR capsule 500 mg rutin + yogurt control, as part of their breakfast meal or as a later snack.
Interventions
Rutin Intervention Study (daily for 12 weeks) Arm 1: Rutin (5o0mg) enriched yoghurt (200g) + control capsules (2x 250mg) Arm 2: Control yoghurt (200g) + rutin 500mg capsule (2x 250mg) OGTT will take place at baseline and 12 weeks. Participants will be fasted for 10-12hrs prior to each study visit. Participants will be asked to bring back the lids from the yoghurt pottles and the bottle containing capsules to check for compliance at each visit. Yoghurt will be consumed in one setting in a pottle with 200g yoghurt (enriched with 500mg rutin). Control yoghurt will be plain yoghurt with vanilla custard flavour. The rutin-enriched yoghurt is also vanilla custard flavour.
