NCT01718431

Brief Summary

This study aims at investigating the impact of colonic fermentation of intrinsic indigestible carbohydrates in cereal whole kernels after three days consumption, on metabolic variables and cognition. The study is performed in healthy, normal to slightly over-weight test subjects.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Area under the plasma concentration versus time curve (AUC) of the test meal

    The differences in AUC between different risk markers, assessed in plasma or serum,after intake of the test meal in comparison to the reference meal is measured. Example of variables measured are glucose, insulin, appetite hormones, inflammatory markers, markers of colonic fermentation.

    Post-prandially after breakfast, 0-150 min

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Cognitive performance

    Post-prandially after breakfast, 0-210 min

  • Subjective satiety

    post-prandially after breakfast, 0-150 min
