NCT02389114

Brief Summary

The primary hypothesis of this study is that the higher concentration of soy protein intake will increase satiety and decrease the energy intake at the subsequent meal. The secondary hypothesis is that the synergistic effect of soy protein and polydextrose will further increase satiety and reduce energy intake at the subsequent meal. The third hypothesis is that the ingestion of protein and polydextrose will differentially impact on satiety-related metabolism, i.e. blood glucose, insulin, urea, plasma amino acids, gut hormones and gastric emptying.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Food intake

    Ad-libitum lunch will be provided to measure food intake

    90 min subsequent to preload consumption

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Subjective motivational ratings

    VAS will be obtained before and after breakfast, 1 and 2 h after breakfast, before preload, 15, 30, 45, 60, and 75 min after the preload, and before and after lunch.

  • Gastric emptying rate

    Before the preload, and 15, 30, 45, 60, 75 and 90 min after the preload

  • Physiological Outcomes

    Before the preload, and 15, 30, 45, 60, 75 and 90 min after the preload

Polydextrose is a randomly bonded polymer of glucose developed in the 1960s. It is widely recognized as a soluble fiber that is not digested in the upper gastrointestinal tract due to the complex structure and nature of the glycosidic bonds, but is partially fermented by the microbiota in large intestine generating short chain fatty acids.
