The 8-month diet and AEx regimens used here are theoretically motivated by implementation science and use the best available practices to treat multisystemic disabling processes. The recent Centers for Disease Control (CDC) review of Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP) implementation literature found
This acute intervention study will have a randomised controlled crossover design where the volunteers will return for 4 stand-alone study sessions. All study procedures will be carried out at the Human Nutrition Unit (HNU) of the Rowett Institute.
The first study session will be an oral glucose
In the United States, pediatric obesity has more than tripled in the last 30 years, particularly among certain racial/ethnic groups including African-Americans. This disparity is partially attributable to greater exposure to psychological stress reported in this group (relative to non-Latino
The aim of this human intervention study is to evaluate the impact of a botanical-based extract on gut health, immunity and metabolic disorders in healthy adults.
Type 2 diabetes is a metabolic disorder characterized by elevated fasting blood glucose and impaired insulin signaling (insulin resistance) and is associated with several comorbidities including neuropathy, retinopathy, kidney disease, and elevated risk for heart attack and stroke. Lifestyle
Consumption of carbohydrate-rich foods or sugary drinks affects blood glucose levels. Results from a large number of studies in humans have shown that diets rich in foods that give lower glucose response beneficially affect elevated fasting blood glucose and insulin levels, increase the sensitivity
Diets that produce lower glucose and insulin responses may reduce diabetes and cardiovascular risk. They may also facilitate weight control by promoting satiety, insulin sensitivity and optimal insulin secretion after a meal. Food ingredients may indeed reduce postprandial glucose and insulin
Peanut skins, a by-product of peanut processing industry, is usually discarded as a waste in despite of the high content of phenolic compounds. Polyphenol extract from peanut skins has been demonstrated to inhibit α-amylase activity in vitro. Hence, the aim of this study was to evaluate the
Objective: To evaluate pexacerfont, an orally available, brain-penetrant selective CRF1 antagonist, for its ability to modulate food craving and consumption in chronic unsuccessful dieters.
Study population: We will collect evaluable data from up to 90 restrained eaters (individuals who indicate a
Preparations that reduce absorption of calories from dietary carbohydrates could be decisively meaningful for the regulation of bodyweight or obesity. Hence, Glucosanol™ may be used as a tool for the treatment of obesity and weight management through reduced carbohydrate absorption.
The rationale
