Effects of Nutrients in Dairy Products on Blood Glucose Metabolism
In this study,seven emulsifier-based nutritional shakes with balanced and complete mac-ronutrients achieved the same structural features and matched macronutrients through different sources of protein,oil,effective carbohydrates or fiber nutrient levels.Using a randomized crossover trial(n =15).The results showed that compared with sodium caseinate,soybean protein could re-duce the peak blood sugar(P =0.000 3).Medium-chain triglycerides(MCTs)lowered blood glucose levels at 30 or 45 minutes compared with long-chain triglycerides(LCTs)(P<0.000 1 or =0.000 8).Maltodextrin reduced peak blood glucose levels compared with corn syrup(P =0.005 8).Maltodextrin + whey protein decreased blood glucose levels at 45 minutes compared with corn syrup + sodium caseinate(P<0.000 1).MCT+whey protein+syrup+fructooligosaccharide(FOS)(P<0.000 1),LCT+whey protein+maltodextrin+FOS(P<0.000 1),LCT+whey protein+syrup+oat fi-ber(P =0.002 7)and LCT+sodium caseinate+syrup+FOS suppressed food intake compared to LCT+sodium caseinate+syrup+FOS.These comparative data suggest that postprandial blood glucose and food intake following consumption of nutritional shakes can be manipulated by altering the source of one or both macronutrients.
