Prediabetic State
Conditions
Brief summary
The aim of this project was to determine if an administration of either 10 g of whey protein isolate or 10 g of whey protein microgels 30 or 10 min before a standard meal could reduce postprandial glucose response in obese subjects.
Detailed description
Monocentric, controlled, randomized, open, complete cross-over study design where participants will take 2 test products or water (negative control) at 2 different time points. The targeted population will be 16 completely healthy males and females at risk for pre-diabetes. Primary objective: To quantify the effects of whey protein pre-meals administrated at 30 or 10 min before a meal on post-prandial glucose in the interstitial tissue, as compared to water as negative control. Secondary objective: To compare glucose response of the different pre-meals (water, whey protein isolate, whey protein micelles).
