简要总结
The objectives of this study are to examine the effects of chronic, (12 weeks) administration of Whey protein on HbA1c, and postprandial glucose (PPG).
详细描述
Whey protein that accounts for 20% of whole milk protein seems to induce insulinotropic /β-cell-stimulating and glucose lowering effects via bioactive peptides generated during its gastrointestinal digestion. These bioactive peptides stimulate the release of GLP-1, serve as endogenous inhibitors of DPP-4 and cause inhibitory activity against α-glucosidase activity, which might be an additional mechanism accounting for the glucose lowering effects of Whey.
In the investigators previous study, the acute administration with Whey protein resulted in postprandial insulinotropic and glucose lowering effects in type 2 diabetic subjects. This was associated with increased postprandial response of the total-GLP-1 and of intact-GLP-1, suggesting that the peptides generated from Whey protein may have dual beneficial effects (increasing incretin production and decreasing incretin degradation by DPP-4) on glycemia regulation in subjects with type 2 diabetes.
Addition of Whey protein to the meal, significantly decreased PPG in healthy and in type 2 diabetic subjects and there are also clinical evidence in non-diabetics individuals, that acute and chronic administration of Whey protein has antihypertensive activity.
The effect of chronic administration of Whey protein on HbA1c and PPG have not been examined previously in type 2 diabetics.

研究组 & 干预措施
Whey Protein (WPC) at breakfast
The subjects in Whey Protein (WPC) group will consume WPC (35gr) powder in bottles mixed with 250 ml milk, making a total of 42 g protein, at breakfast, for 12 weeks.
干预措施: Whey Protein (WPC) at breakfast (Dietary Supplement)
Other Protein Sources at breakfast
The subjects will consume also 42 g protein at breakfast but from different source, for 12 weeks.
干预措施: Other Protein Sources at breakfast (Dietary Supplement)
Low Protein at breakfast
The subjects will consume 17 g protein breakfast namely from soy for 12 weeks.
干预措施: Low Protein at breakfast (Dietary Supplement)
结局指标
主要结局
