Abdominal Obesity, Cardiometabolic Risk

Keywords

inflammation, cardiometabolic risk, endotoxemia, polyphenols, oxidative stress, slow digestible starch, fibers, gut microbiota, nutritional challenge test

Brief summary

The aim of the study is to evaluate the synergistic effects of daily consumption of food products fortified with bioactive components (fibres, polyphenols, omega-3, Slow Digestible Starch) for 9 weeks, compared to the daily intake of standard food products on low-grade inflammation in cardiometabolic risk subject. The inflammatory parameters will be assessed in fasting and in postprandial period after the consumption of a hyper-carbohydrate and hyper-lipidic test meal called Flexmeal. A metabolic stress will be induced by a fructose ingestion challenge during the last 6 days of interventional period.

Interventions

OTHERbioactive components fortified food products intake (biscuits and cookies)

Volunteers will have to consume daily 100 g of fortified biscuits and cookies instead of those usually consumed during nine weeks. The last week, volunteers will have to consume daily a fructose solution (3g/kg fat free mass)

OTHERcontrol food products intake (biscuits and cookies)

Volunteers will have to consume daily 100 g of standard biscuits and cookies instead of those usually consumed during nine weeks. The last week, volunteers will have to consume daily a fructose solution (3g/kg fat free mass)
