Study Overview
Brief Summary
This project evaluate effects of a commonly used food supplement on glucose metabolism and cognitive function.
Detailed Description
The test product has previously been suggested to elicit beneficial effects on glucose metabolism and cognitive performance. The purpose with this study is to evaluate metabolic effects and effects on mood variables of the test product provided at breakfast. Test variables are determined at fating and postprandial a standardised breakfast. The results are compared with effects after a placebo product.
