Summary

The aim of the present pilot randomized controlled trial is to compare the effects of the following: 1)-panettone enriched with arabinoxylans (p-rich), 2)-panettone not enriched (p-standard) on blood glucose and insulin values, and appetite scores in 10 healthy volunteers.

Detailed description

This is a crossover, randomized double-blind trial. A product enriched with arabinoxylan extracted from threshing (panettone, p-rich, a sweet baked product with a high glycemic index) was developed to assess the impact on metabolic responses and satiety when compared to the standard product (p-standard) . Ten Caucasian non-smoker healthy adult volunteers were enrolled starting from January 2023. Participants were randomized to receive either the p-rich or p-standard. The order of administration of each product was randomized using a computer-generated sequence. The day of each test, fasting individuals underwent a blood sample collection, and weight and height measurements. Then, participants consumed 100 grams of the product within 20 minutes, while sitting. Blood samples were collected at 15, 30, 45, 60, 90, 120 minutes after the consumption of each food.
