NCT03656367

Brief Summary

The overall aim of this study is to investigate how dairy products with different structures and textures affect lipid absorption kinetics in the acute postprandial period via blood lipid biochemistry. The study will be conducted as a randomized acute cross-over meal study. Apparently healthy men will be recruited in the study. They will on 4 test days consume the 4 dairy products and blood will be drawn the following 8 hours.

    Co-primary endpoint. Fasting and postprandial concentrations of apolipoprotein B48 are measured after intake of a test meal.

    0-8 hour

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • Cholesterol (total, LDL and HDL cholesterol)

    0-8 hour

  • Free Fatty Acid (FFA)

    0-8 hour

  • Insulin

    0-8 hour

  • Glucose

    0-8 hour

  • Apolipoproteins

    0-8 hour

Other Outcomes (6)

  • Paracetamol

    0-8 hour

  • Metabolomics

    0-8 hour

  • Subjective appetite sensation

    0-8 hour

  • +3 more other outcomes

Study Arms (2)

All subjects

EXPERIMENTAL

Cross-over study (all subjects receive all interventions) * Cheddar cheese * Blended and homogenized cheddar cheese * An analog milk * An analog cheese

Dietary Supplement: Cheddar cheeseDietary Supplement: Blended and homogenized cheddar cheeseDietary Supplement: An analog milkDietary Supplement: An analog cheese

Healthy subjects only (subgroup)

OTHER

If any subjects (against our hypothesis) have indices of metabolic syndrome i.e. raised fasting glucose or TG concentration, secondary analyses will be conducted to assess results without these subjects. All subjects receive all interventions) * Cheddar cheese * Blended and homogenized cheddar cheese * An analog milk * An analog cheese

Dietary Supplement: Cheddar cheeseDietary Supplement: Blended and homogenized cheddar cheeseDietary Supplement: An analog milkDietary Supplement: An analog cheese

Interventions

Cheddar cheeseDIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

The reference product is a commercial matured cheddar cheese

All subjectsHealthy subjects only (subgroup)

A blended and homogenized cheddar cheese (a spread) which, compared to the reference, has a minimal protein network and has smaller fat droplet

All subjectsHealthy subjects only (subgroup)
An analog milkDIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

An anolog milk (i.e. milk with a cheese-like nutritional composition) which, compared to the reference, does not contain a protein network

All subjectsHealthy subjects only (subgroup)
An analog cheeseDIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

This analog cheese (a gel/yoghurt) is produced from the analog milk which, compared to the reference, has a protein network, however it is a network that differs from the reference

All subjectsHealthy subjects only (subgroup)
