Effects of a Carbonated Water Enriched With Amino Acids and Chromium Picolinate (Good Idea®) on Glucose Homeostasis.
- Conditions
- Type 2 Diabetes MellitusPostprandial HyperglycemiaMetabolic Syndrome
- Interventions
- Dietary Supplement: Carbonated water with amino acids and chromiumDietary Supplement: Placebo Carbonated Water
- Registration Number
- NCT03552315
- Lead Sponsor
- DoubleGood AB
- Brief Summary
It has previously been shown in healthy subjects, that a carbonated water containing a mix of amino acids and chromium picolinate can decrease postprandial blood glucose. Based on these findings, a flavored sparkling water product called Good Idea® with a proprietary blend of five amino acids and chromium picolinate has been developed. This product, along with an identical placebo, are included in this study to evaluate the effects on postprandial blood glucose in healthy, overweight adults when consumed with a standardized, high glycemic test meal. The study will be conducted in a cross-over design, double-blinded and placebo controlled, including 45 participants. The primary endpoint of the study is the incremental area under the curve (iAUC) for capillary blood glucose within 180 minutes after ingestion of the meal.

Group Intervention Description Water with amino acids and chromium Carbonated water with amino acids and chromium The carbonated water with a proprietary blend of five amino acids and chromium picolinate is consumed with a standardized test meal to study its effects on glucose and insulin responses. Carbonated water Placebo Carbonated Water The placebo carbonated water is consumed with a standardized test meal to study its effects on glucose and insulin responses.
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method The three-hour incremental area under the curve (iAUC) for capillary blood glucose, 0-180 minutes 0, 15, 30, 45, 60, 90, 120 and 180 minutes post test meal The incremental area under the curve for capillary blood glucose will be measured within 180 minutes after a test meal. Blood samples will be collected at 8 time points during the 180 minutes.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method The one-hour iAUC for intravenous Glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1), 0-60 minutes 0, 15, 30, 45 and 60 minutes post test meal The incremental area under the curve for intravenous blood GLP-1 will be measured within 60 minutes after a test meal. Blood samples will be collected at 5 time points during the 60 minutes.
The three hour iAUC for intravenous glucose, 0-180 minutes 0, 15, 30, 45, 60, 90, 120 and 180 minutes post test meal The incremental area under the curve for intravenous blood glucose will be measured within 180 minutes after a test meal. Blood samples will be collected at 8 time points during the 180 minutes.
The three-hour iAUC for insulin, 0-180 minutes 0, 15, 30, 45, 60, 90, 120 and 180 minutes post test meal The incremental area under the curve for intravenous blood insulin will be measured within 180 minutes after a test meal. Blood samples will be collected at 8 time points during the 180 minutes.
