Trial summary

The effects of dairy-free products consumed with a breakfast meal on food intake and glycaemic regulation remain unexplored. It is known that dairy products are an excellent source of protein, low glycaemic sugar lactose, calcium, and vitamin D. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: The Effect of Dairy and Non-Dairy Cultured Products Added to Breakfast Cereals on Satiation, Satiety, Blood Glucose Control and Short-Term Food Intake in Young Adults

The effects of dairy-free products consumed with a breakfast meal on food intake and glycaemic regulation remain unexplored. It is known that dairy products are an excellent source of protein, low glycaemic sugar lactose, calcium, and vitamin D. In our recent study the consumption of a dairy snack with high protein content resulted in reduced blood glucose response compared to non-dairy snack with the similar amount of available carbohydrate. The investigators hypothesize that the ad libitum intake of breakfast cereals served with a high-protein fermented dairy product will result in reduced and sustained blood glucose response compared to non-dairy control. The objective of this study is to investigate how dairy and non-dairy cultured products used as carriers for breakfast granola cereals and consumed ad libitum affect short-term food intake, satiety, and glycaemia within two hours.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Postprandial blood glucose concentration

    The concentration of blood glucose in venous blood after the ad libitum breakfast meal or water control.

    Measured: 0-120 minutes

  2. Subjective feeling of appetite

    The subjective assessment of appetite parameters including desire to eat, fullness, hunger and a prospectiove food consumption measured with 100 mm Visual Analogue Scales with two opposite statements at each end (e.g., for the hunger scale, 0 mm means not hungry at all, and 100 mm means very hungry).

    Measured: 0-120 minutes

  3. Ad libitum food intake

    The amount of energy (kcal) consumed ad libitum with the breakfast meal or water control and with the test meal (pizza lunch) two hour later.

    Measured: 0-120 minutes

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Circulatory insulin concentration

    The concentration of insulin in blood

    Measured: 0-120 minutes

  2. Subjective feeling of physical comfort

    The subjective assessment of wellness and gastrointestinal symptoms including feeling of nausea, diarrhoea, flatulence and other parameters measured with 100 mm Visual Analogue Scales with two opposite statements at each end.

    Measured: 0-120 minutes

  3. Subjective feeling of food palatability (pleasantness)

    The pleasantness of the breakfast meal and pizza meal measured with 100 mm Visual Analogue Scales with two opposite statements at each end.(e.g., 0 mm means that food is not pleasant at all, and 100 mm means that the food is very pleasant).

    Measured: 0, 120 minutes

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Food in people with Blood Glucose and Eating, run by Mount Saint Vincent University at 1 site in Canada.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Apr 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Canada. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

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?

Postprandial blood glucose concentration (time frame: 0-120 minutes). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 16 Apr 2019.
