Study Overview
Brief Summary
A randomized, crossover and controlled clinical trial will be developed in 23 individuals to evaluate the postprandial effect of consuming snacks rich in vegetable and animal protein compared to a high-quality pork sausage
Detailed Description
A randomized, crossover and controlled clinical trial will be developed in 23 individuals to evaluate the postprandial effect of consuming snacks rich in vegetable and animal protein compared to a high-quality pork sausage. Each of the participants will consume the two types of snacks (20 grams) following a random assignment order. The design is randomised and cross-over.
A greater satiating effect is expected with the hybrid snack, given that the fiber in chickpea flour is higher than that of dry chickpeas. In addition, chickpea flour is rich in soluble fiber (a type of fiber that helps retain water and therefore slows down digestion) having positive effects on the gastrointestinal tract and on the metabolism of LDL cholesterol, as well as on blood glucose .
Foods high in complex carbohydrates and fiber have a satiating effect due to their fiber content. It is known that the most satiating macronutrient is protein if the food also contains fiber, this favors that some nutrients are not fully absorbed, including fat. Hence, these foods have a satiety index greater than fat itself, thus favoring adherence to diet and body weight, since it is possible to control portions, avoiding snacking on unhealthy products.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Satiety
Time Frame: post-prandial state: we will study blood samples before eating snacks and the change at 15, 30, 60, 90 and 120 minutes after it.
Satiety will be measured through the objective determination of endocannabinoid compounds by mass spectrometer analysis
Secondary Outcomes
No secondary outcomes reported
