Glycemic Control, Gastrointestinal Hormone Response, Healthy Young Men
Conditions
Brief summary
The investigators hypothesize that the physiological effects of milk on satiety and glycemic control are mediated by the interaction between its macronutrient components by both insulin-dependent and independent mechanisms.
Interventions
Commercially available milk from the grocery store
Added lactose + fat + protein together to form a mixture

Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Glucose | 0-180 min |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Insulin | 0-180 min |
Other
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Gastrointestinal hormones and gastric emptying rate | 0-180 min | Gatrointestinal hormones measured include plasma concentrations of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), peptide tyrosine tyrosine (PYY), cholecystokinin (CCK), and ghrelin. Gastric emptying is assessed indirectly by adding 1.5 g of paracetamol (acetaminophen) to each beverage and measuring plasma paracetamol concentrations. |
