NCT05430061

Brief Summary

To gain a better understanding about the conditioning effect of consumption of slowly digestible carbohydrate on gastric emptying rate, respiratory quotient and metabolic flexibility, this study will focus on monitoring change in gastric emptying with consumption of a single source of slowly digestible carbohydrate (30 g of raw corn starch) for 21 days and compared to a control (21 days of continious consumption of rapidly digesting carbohydrate maltodextrin).

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Gastric half emptying time

    Using a 13C octanoic acid breath test we assessed gastric emptying time using a non-invasive procedure

    21 days of intervention

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Respiratory exchange ratio and metabolic flexibility

    21 days of intervention

  • Height and Weight

    Height and weight will only be entered at baseline.

Study Arms (2)

Raw corn starch

EXPERIMENTAL

Raw corn starch is a slow digesting carbohydrate, corn starch, a commonly consumed food ingredient, considered GRAS (generally recognized as safe) CFR 182.70- 182.90 will be used as the test meal treatment. Participants will receive 21 individual containers of raw corn starch (30 g/container) and 21 cups of 4 oz unsweetened apple sauce. Participants will be asked to consume one starch container mixed in apple sauce at 10 a.m.; each day for 21 days.

Dietary Supplement: slowly digestible carbohydrate

Maltodextrin DE-10

SHAM COMPARATOR

Maltodextrin dextrose equivalent 10 is a fast digesting carbohydrate, is a non-sweet nutritive polymer that consists of D-glucose units linked primarily by \[alpha\]-1-4 bonds and that has a dextrose equivalent (D.E.) of less than 20. It is regarded as Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS) by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for direct use as a food ingredient (GRAS, 21CFR184.1444).DE-1 Maltodextrin is commercially available. Participants will receive 21 individual containers of maltodextrin (30 g/container) and 21 cups of 4 oz unsweetened apple sauce. Participants will be asked to consume one maltodextrin container mixed in apple sauce at 10 a.m.; each day for 21 days.

Dietary Supplement: slowly digestible carbohydrate

Interventions

carbohydrates with slow digestion rate have the capacity to induce slow gastric emptying time and potentially modify metabolic response and modulate postprandial glycemia.
