Potato is one of the world's most popular foods and is widely accepted as a staple food. The objective of this study is to determine the effect of consuming potato chips from different cultivars on blood glucose, subjective appetite and food intake. It is hypothesized that the chips produced from various potato cultivars will differ in their effect on blood glucose, satiety and food intake.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| blood glucose | 120 min | Glycaemic response will be measured before the treatment (baseline) and at 15, 30, 45, 60, 90 and 120 min after the treatment. The glucose concentration will be measured in capillary blood using portable glucose meter. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| food intake | 120 min | Ad libidum food intake will be measure at 120 min using test pizza meal. The amount of consumed test meal (g) will be converted to the energy (kcal). |
Other
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| satiety | 120 min | Subjective appetite will be measured with visual analogue scales at 0 min immediately before the treatment (baseline) and at 15, 30, 45, 60, 90 and 120 min after the treatment. |
