Summary

This study test whether a Continuous Glucose Monitor can pickup differences in glucose (in the interstitial fluid) during a dietary intervention using meals with either a high with a low glycemic load.

Detailed description

The aim of this study is to determine the suitability of a continuous glucose monitor to detect the impact of a dietary intervention on postprandial blood glucose levels in normal, healthy, free living subjects. We will compare a dietary intervention of meals with a high glycemic load (high post-meal blood glucose) versus meals with a low glycemic load (low post-meal blood glucose) in a cross-over study. In addition, the glucose profiles obtained both via venous blood sampling and via continuous glucose monitor following a standard carbohydrate load will be compared.

Conditions

• Glucose Metabolism Disorders
