Conditions
Healthy Subjects
Registration Number
NCT03431233
Lead Sponsor
Seoul National University Hospital
Brief Summary

The aim of this study is to explore premeal protein-enriched bar effect in food intake in healthy subjects.

Detailed Description

Twenty healthy subjects will be recruited. Every subject will be randomized in 6 groups and studied on 3 separate days in random order with 1 week intervals. These participants will consume protein enriched bar, commercial cereal bar, or water followed by a standardized diet (gimbap). For study outcomes, food intake, appetite and satiety (visual analog scale), plasma glucose, and satiety related hormone will be measured. Blood sampling will be done before 15 min of breakeast, at the moment of start of breakfast (0 min), and then 30, 60, 90, 120 min. Plasma glucose levels, total/active GLP-1, ghrelin, total PYY will be measured.
