Metabolic Effects of Whey Compounds in Patients With Diabetes Mellitus Type 2.
- Conditions
- Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2
- Interventions
- Dietary Supplement: WHEDietary Supplement: speWHE
- Registration Number
- NCT04166760
- Lead Sponsor
- University of Aarhus
- Brief Summary
The main objective of our study is to investigate the metabolic effects of a i) ordinary whey protein (WHE) and ii) a specific whey protein fraction (speWHE) when the interventions are ingested by patients with type 2 diabetes 30 minutes prior to an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). We will also investigate the glucose response when the patients ingest the interventions at home in their own environment 30 minutes before breakfast and dinner (2days) and also monitor glucose levels without interventions (2 days).

Group Intervention Description WHE (regular whey protein) WHE Regular whey protein. The intervention will be ingested 30 min. prior to an OGTT (3 hours). The intervention will also be ingested 30 min prior to breakfast and dinner for 2 days in the patient's own environment. speWHE (specific whey protein compound) speWHE Specific whey protein compound. The intervention will be ingested 30 min. prior to an OGTT (3 hours). The intervention will also be ingested 30 min prior to breakfast and dinner for 2 days in the patient's own environment.
