Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Vascular resistance

    Vascular resistance (arm and leg) as obtained from venous occlusion plethysmography and corrected for blood pressure

    Average of values obtained at 30, 60, 90, 120, 150 and 180 minutes after test product intake corrected for the value obtained at approximately 20 minutes before test product intake (baseline)

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • echo-Doppler

    Approximately 20 minutes before (baseline) and 30, 60, 90, 120, 150 and 180 minutes after test product intake

  • Near-infrared spectroscopy

    Approximately 20 minutes before (baseline) and 30, 60, 90, 120, 150 and 180 minutes after test product intake

  • Glucose and insulin

    Approximately 20 minutes before (baseline) and 30, 60, 90, 120, 150 and 180 minutes after test product intake

  • Vascular resistance exploratory

    Approximately 20 minutes before (baseline) and 30, 60, 90, 120, 150 and 180 minutes after test product intake
