Brief summary

The purpose of this study is to investigate the metabolic and endocrine responses during 3 hour after taking 75g fructose or glucose in young Chinese.

Detailed description

The study was a double-blinded, randomized, crossover trial. Twenty healthy volunteers were randomized to two groups: group A (300ml of 22.5% glucose) and group B (300ml of 22.5% fructose).Volunteer was randomized into either group A or B, after an 8-h overnight fasting, took 300ml of solution at 0830 within 5 minutes. After one-week washout period, volunteer was crossed over for either group B or A. each intervention, venous blood was collected at 0h, 0.5h, 1h, 2h, and 3h and blood pressure was tested at 0h, 1h, 2h, and 3h.
