About this study

Potato is one of the world's most popular foods and is widely accepted as a staple food. The objective of this study is to determine the effect of consuming instant mashed potatoes with and without fat on glycemic response, subjective appetite and food intake. It is hypothesized that mashed potato with added fat (as it is usually consumed) will result in lower glycaemic response and subjective appetite, and reduced subsequent food intake.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

Who may be eligible to take part?

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Dec 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

blood glucose (time frame: 120 min). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
