Acute Effects of Cafestol on Glucose Metabolism in Subjects With Type-2-diabetes.

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2
Interventions
Dietary Supplement: Placebo
Dietary Supplement: Cafestol
Registration Number
NCT04908904
Lead Sponsor
University of Aarhus
Brief Summary

Acute, double-blinded, randomized, cross-over cafestol intervention study with sixteen participants with T2D participating in two OGTTs.

Detailed Description

The study is an acute, double-blinded, randomized, cross-over intervention study with sixteen participants with T2D. Initially, a blood sample is obtained (t=-15 min) and at time point 0, the participants will ingest a tablet containing either 12 mg cafestol or placebo. Immediately hereafter an OGTT commences with ingestion of a 75 g glucose solution. In the following 3 hours blood samples are collected at time points 0, 15, 30, 60, 90, 120 and 180 min. The samples will be used for determination of plasma glucose, insulin and cafestol, as well as GLP-1 and GIP. After a one-week washout period, the subject will undergo the same set-up again, however now with the opposite intervention / placebo.
