NCT02667184

Brief Summary

The goal of this study is to determine subjective gastrointestinal tolerance response and differences in breath hydrogen response following the consumption of different types of low FODMAP oral nutrition supplements. This randomized, crossover study requires participants to arrive to the lab 12 hours fasted, consume an oral liquid supplement and complete gastrointestinal tolerance questionnaires as well as produce samples for breath hydrogen analysis at various time points over a 4 hour time period.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (4)

  • Breath hydrogen response

    At baseline, subjects will be asked to exhale a full breath into a sample collection bag. The breath samples will be extracted and measured using the Quintron Breath Track Analyzer. This will be a marker of carbohydrate fermentation in the colon.

    baseline

  • Breath hydrogen response

    At 60 minutes, subjects will be asked to exhale a full breath into a sample collection bag. The breath samples will be extracted and measured using the Quintron Breath Track Analyzer. This will be a marker of carbohydrate fermentation in the colon.

    60 minutes

  • Breath hydrogen response

    At 120 minutes, subjects will be asked to exhale a full breath into a sample collection bag. The breath samples will be extracted and measured using the Quintron Breath Track Analyzer. This will be a marker of carbohydrate fermentation.

  • Breath hydrogen response

    At 240 minutes, subjects will be asked to exhale a full breath into a sample collection bag. The breath samples will be extracted and measured using the Quintron Breath Track Analyzer. This will be a marker of carbohydrate fermentation.
