Primary outcome
The difference in glycaemic index between the pasta high in resistant starch
and the normal pasta.
Secondary outcome
N.A.
Background summary
In the last decade several studies have shown that diets with a low glycaemic
index (GI) are beneficial in relation to the metabolic syndrome. Although an
extensive table of GI values for foods was published, the need for continued
testing and product development is necessary. For most starchy food products a
reduction in GI appears to be accompanied by a higher content of resistant
starch.
Study objective
The aim of the study is to determine the glycaemic index of pasta with a high
resistant starch content compared to normal pasta.
Study design
The study will have a randomized crossover design. Randomization takes place
using a computerized randomization program.
Intervention
The subjects receive 3 different testmeals during 5 testsessions. The test
meals are:
- white bread (standard food, repeated 3 times)
- pasta high in risistant starch (1 time)
- normal pasta (1 time)
After a fasting blood sample, subjects will eat the test meal at a comfortable
pace within 15 min and further blood samples will be taken at 15, 30, 45, 60,
90 and 120 min after starting to eat.
Study burden and risks
The study consists of 5 test-days of 2.5 hours. In total the time spent on the
study will be 5 x 2.5 = 12.5 hours test.
The study does not include any other risks for subjects, apart from usual risks
of minor bruising during blood sampling.
