简要总结
The objective of this study is to assess to what extent goat's milk is better tolerated than cow's milk among individuals who report being intolerant to cow's milk, and, if so, to understand the underlying factors. To achieve this, digestive discomfort sensations and postprandial kinetics of nutrients after ingestion of cow's or goat's milk will be compared in two populations: individuals intolerant to cow's milk but not to goat's milk, and individuals who show no symptoms of intolerance to either cow's or goat's milk. For this purpose, approaches based on stable isotope labeling of milk will be employed.
详细描述
Objective:
Although milk has many nutritional benefits, such as being rich in high-quality proteins and calcium, some people limit or exclude its consumption due to poor digestive tolerance. Lactose intolerance is a well-known cause, but other factors may occur, remaining poorly understood. Goat milk is perceived by consumers as causing fewer intestinal issues than cow milk, particularly for sensitive individuals. However, there is little scientific evidence to support this perception and to confirm the supposed health benefits of goat's milk over cow's milk. The objective of this study is to assess to what extent goat's milk is better tolerated than cow's milk among individuals who report being intolerant to cow's milk, and, if so, to understand the underlying factors.
Design:
This study is crossover study, randomized for the order of testing (goat milk or cow milk), conducted in a single-blind design (participants are not informed about the test meal, which is masked by aroma), involving two groups of at least ten volunteers: individuals intolerant to cow's milk but not to goat's milk, and individuals who show no symptoms of intolerance to either cow's or goat's milk. Each subject will have consumed both milks at the end of the two sessions, with a minimum one-month interval.

结局指标
主要结局
Digestive discomfort score from 0 to 8 hours post-meal
时间窗: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 hours post-meal
A digestive tolerance questionnaire (Casellas, 2009) and a hunger sensation questionnaire using visual analog scales are administered hourly. These are based on scales from 1 to 10 to assess feelings of : flatulence, nausea, diarrhea, bloating, and abdominal pain.
次要结局
- 2H enrichment of plasma fatty acids from 0 to 8 hours post-meal(0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 hours post-meal)
- Intestinal microbiota composition(Once at the beginning of enrollement)
- 15N enrichment of plasma and urine fractions from 0 to 8 hours post-meal(0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 hours post-meal)
- 2H enrichment of plasma glucose from 0 to 8 hours post-meal(0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 hours post-meal)
- Blood metabolites concentrations from 0 to 8 hours post-meal(0, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 hours post-meal)
- Substrate oxidation rates from 0 to 8 hours post-meal(0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 hours post-meal)
- Exhaled breath gas concentrations from 0 to 8 hours post-meal(0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 hours post-meal)
