Brief summary

The aim of this study is to investigate the potential effect of different doses of MPH supplement on glucose metabolism, hunger and appetite hormones.

Detailed description

The potential use of marine protein hydrolysates (MPH) as a supplement with similar or better health benefits than a regular white fish meal, can be regarded both cost-effective, environmental friendly and sustainable. The aim of this study is to investigate the potential effect of increasing/different doses of MPH supplement on glucose metabolism, hunger and appetite hormones in healthy elderly, to provide a basis for the optimalization of the daily dose for further use of MPH in clinical study protocols in elderly patients with sarcopenia, other inflammatory conditions or abnormal glucose metabolism.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
GlucoseA standardized meal, thereafter repeated measures every 20 minutes for 2 hours on day 7 in each intervention sequencePostprandial glucose (mmol/L) curve on day 7 in each sequence

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
InsulinAfter the standardized breakfast meal, repeated measure every 20 minutes for 2 hours, on day 7 in each intervention sequencePostprandial Insulin (mIE/L) - curve on day 7 in each sequence
Hormon 1At 6 different times point during a 2 hours period, on day 7 in each intervention sequenceGlucagon like peptide 1 (GLP-1) pmol/l - curve, on day 7 in each sequence
Visual analogue scale (VAS)Before breakfast on each study day (day 7 in each intervention sequence)Assessed by questionnaire VAS, scale from 0-10, where 0 is minimum score and 10 is the maximum score, reported e.g. as a total score of 7. The higher the reported value is the worse outcome.
KANE, symptom scoreTwo hours after breakfast on day 1 and 7 in each intervention sequenceAssessed by questionaire KANE (Family name of an Author) , scale from 0-10, where 0 is minimum score and 10 is the maximum score, reported e.g. as a total score of 7. The higher the reported value is the worse outcome.
