NCT03080909

Brief Summary

A double-blind, randomized crossover design with five arms including four experimental conditions and placebo will be applied. After having successfully completed screening procedures, eligible participants will be invited to five separate test days. The test days cannot be within the same week, however there is no upper limit for days in between, as long as the participants remain weight stable and do not change diet or physical activity level. Significant changes in diet, physical activity level (evaluated by the sub-investigator) or weight change ±3 kg over the course of the study (from screening to completion of the last test day) results in exclusion of that subject.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Reduced energy intake

    Assessments of ad libitum test meal when exposed to one or more of the encapsulated nutrients compared to the placebo

    up to day 5

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Subjective appetite sensations

    Six hours during each test day between test day 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 (acute effect)

  • Subjective appetite sensations in relation to energy consumed

    up to day 5

Other Outcomes (2)

  • Subjective nausea assessments

    Six hours during each test day between test day 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 (acute effect)

  • Subjective nausea assessments

    up to day 5

Study Arms (2)

Encapsulated nutients

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Encapsulated nutrients known to be able to stimulate GLP-1 and PYY release. Encapsulated with coating providing release at pH≈7.0 (in the distal part of the ileum) expected to start approximately 3 hour following ingestion. The encapsulated nutrients will be provided 30 minutes prior to the standardized fixed breakfast (providing 2000 kJ) and 60 minutes prior to the standardized fixed mid-morning snack (providing 1500 kJ), i.e. test products will be provided 6 hour and 4 hour before the ad libitum test meal, respectively.

Dietary Supplement: Encapsulated nutrients

Placebo

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

Nutrients known to have limited stimulation on GLP-1 and PYY release. Encapsulated with coating providing release at pH≈7.0 (in the distal part of the ileum) expected to start approximately 3 hour following ingestion. The placebo products will be provided 30 minutes prior to the standardized fixed breakfast (providing 2000 kJ) and 60 minutes prior to the standardized fixed mid-morning snack (providing 1500 kJ), i.e. placebo products will be provided 6 hour and 4 hour before the ad libitum test meal, respectively.

Dietary Supplement: Placebo
