NCT02846454

Brief Summary

This proposed randomized, double blinded 12 week crossover human feeding study aims to investigate the effects of consuming a composite drink of inulin and arabinoxylan on satiety by measuring appetite biomarkers such as subjective satiety, energy/food intake and changes in the human gut microbiota in healthy weight males (22 to 24.9kg/m2)

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Effects of consuming a composite drink of inulin and arabinoxylan on subjective satiety scores

    The volunteers will randomized to receive either control or treatment drink and asked to consume this twice daily for 28 days, followed by a 28 day washout, the alternate drink will then be consumed for a further 28 days. Visual analogue scale will be used to measure subjective satiety scores during 4 half day study days lasting 6hrs at the beginning and end of each treatment period at a designated nutrition unit (Hugh Sinclair Nutrition unit, Reading University).

    6hrs

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Effects of consuming a composite drink of inulin and arabinoxylan on energy intake

    6hr

  • Effects of consuming a composite drink of inulin and arabinoxylan on anthropometric measurements

    12 weeks

  • Effects of consuming a composite drink of inulin and arabinoxylan on mediating changes in gut microbiota

    28 days

  • Effects of consuming a composite drink of inulin and arabinoxylan on the production of short chain fatty acid production.

    28 days
