Brief summary

Nut consumption is associated with reduced risk of Type 2 diabetes. The aim of this study was to assess the effects of peanut (whole or peanut butter) to breakfast meals on glycemic, insulinemic and selected gut hormone responses, appetite, and food intake over two consecutive meals in obese women with high Type 2 diabetes risk. Fifteen women participated in a randomized crossover trial where 42.5g of whole peanuts (P), peanut butter (PB), or no peanuts (control-C) were added to a 75g available carbohydrate-matched breakfast meal. Postprandial concentrations of blood glucose, insulin, non-esterified free fatty acids (NEFA), glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), peptide YY (PYY), cholecystokinin (CCK), appetitive sensations and food intake were assessed after breakfast treatments and a standard lunch (75g available carbohydrate).

Interventions

DIETARY_SUPPLEMENTWhole peanuts without skins, Peanut butter, or no peanuts (control)

In accordance with the Food and Drug Administration qualified health claim regarding daily nut intake, 42.5 g of whole peanuts or peanut butter were added to a 75g available carbohydrate-matched breakfast meal each test session.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Change from baseline in incretin hormones at four hoursBaseline (-10), 15, 45, 60, 90, 120, 180 and 240 minutesPostprandial concentrations and the incremental area under the curve of peptide YY and cholecystokinin were assessed after breakfast treatments
Change in food intake over 24 hours24 hoursAll food consumed in laboratory and after leaving the laboratory in the experiment day were recorded
