About this study

Official title: Evaluating the Postprandial Glucose Response After Fruit Snack Consumption

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the postprandial glucose and insulin responses after different fruit snack consumption in a healthy population.

Read the detailed description

Fruit snacks made from sweetened dried fruits is a source of polyphenols, fiber, and other nutrients. The addition of sugar could aid in the taste, texture, and shelf life of these types of products. Fruit snacks with different levels of sugar were developed to meet various consumer needs. The postprandial glucose response in a healthy population is of interest in this regard.

Mulberry leaf extract has been shown the benefit of blood glucose regulation in multiple studies. This is mainly due to the function of the most predominant iminosugar, 1-deoxynojirimycin (DNJ), in the mulberry leaf extract which acts as α-glucosidase inhibitor. Fruit snacks containing mulberry leaf extract were developed and the postprandial metabolic response against a reference (white bread matched for carbohydrate) will be observed.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Fruit snack 1, Fruit Snack 2 and Fruit Snack 3 in people with Blood Glucose, run by Ocean Spray Cranberries, Inc. at 1 site in United States.

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 11 inclusion and 19 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 7 Jun 2024. 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 United States. 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?

Glucose maximal concentration (Cmax) 2 hours after consumption (time frame: 2 hour after consumption). 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 7 Jun 2024.
