Study Overview
Brief Summary
the goal of this Randomized controlled cross over trial is to compare the effects of meal sequences VPF meal vs. SMM on the incremental area under the curve of postprandial glucose response among healthy adults in the UAE. the main question it aims to answer is what is the effect of meal sequence of vegetable and protein first followed by carbohydrates (VPF) compared to a standard mixed meal (SMM) on the postprandial glucose level and insulin response among healthy adults in the UAE. Participants will consume two is caloric test meals in random order (SMM and VPF meal sequences) separated by a 7-10-day washout period then blood sample will be collected at fasting ,30min,60min and 120mon for glucose and insulin and hunger ration will be done as well .Researchers will compare the effect of the two meals on postprandial blood glucose, insuline and hunger rating.

Arms & Interventions
standard mixed meal (SMM)
standard mixed meal (SMM) consumed within 15 min to compared to the vegetable protein first followed 10 min later by carbohydrates it with the effect on postprandial glucose ,insulin and hunger rating
Intervention: vegetable and protein first followed by carbohydrates (VPF) meal sequence (Other)
Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
To compare the effects of meal sequences VPF meal vs. SMM on the incremental area under the curve of postprandial glucose response among healthy adults in the UAE.
Time Frame: 7-10 days
incremental area under the curve
Secondary Outcomes
- To compare the postprandial hunger response of the VPF meal sequence vs SMM sequence on the area under the curve using a validated visual analog scale for hunger and fullness (VAS)(7-10 days)
- To compare the effects of the VPF meal sequence vs. SMM sequence on the incremental area under the curve of postprandial insulin response.(2 month)
