The Effects of L-arabinose in a Meal in Healthy Men
- Conditions
- Glucose Metabolism
- Interventions
- Dietary Supplement: L-arabinose - effect on glucose metabolism
- Registration Number
- NCT01801540
- Lead Sponsor
- University of Copenhagen
- Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of a meal containing different doses of L-arabinose, on the intestinal sucrase activity after intake We measure this by measuring the glucose, insulin and c-peptide after meals. Other measurements are made (glucagon and GLP-1) to explain the correlations.
