Scientific titleEffect of sucrose-sweetened mixed berry puree on postprandial glucose and insulin response: A randomised, single-blind, placebo-controlled, cross-over single-centre study
Study objectivesThe primary aim was to investigate the effect of mixed berry puree made from bilberries, blackcurrants, cranberries and strawberries on postprandial plasma glucose concentrations after a 35 g sucrose load in healthy subjects. The secondary aim was to investigate the effect of berry puree on postprandial insulin response.
Ethics approval(s)The Ethics Committee of the Hospital District of Northern Savo approved the study protocol 27 October 2009 (DNRO 106/2009)
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studiedPostprandial glycaemia
InterventionTest meal: 150 g of berry puree made from equal amounts of bilberries, blackcurrants, cranberries and strawberries with 35 g sucrose and 120 ml of tap water.
Control meal: 250 ml of oral sucrose load with similar amounts of available carbohydrates (glucose, fructose and sucrose) than test meal.

Subjects participated in two 2-h meal tolerance tests in a random order, on separate days, with a washout period of at least 5 days. Subjects were tested at the same time of day under similar conditions and acting as their own controls. The experiment began in the morning after a 10-12 h overnight fast. Subjects were advised to consume the test meal steadily within 15 min.
The study subjects were instructed to maintain their diet, body weight and living habits throughout the study, to refrain from intensive physical activity on the day before the test days and abstain from alcohol two days before the test days, and to avoid berries and chocolate in the prior evening meal. In addition, in the evening before the test day each subject was told to consume a meal of choice and repeat that meal before the second test. Smoking was prohibited on the morning before the test and during the test meal.
Intervention typeOther
Primary outcome measurePlasma glucose concentrations analysed from fingertip capillary and venous blood samples taken within 20 min before the ingestion of meal and at 15, 30, 45, 60, 90 and 120 min after starting the ingestion of meal.
Secondary outcome measures1. Serum insulin concentrations analysed from venous blood samples taken within 20 min before the ingestion of meal and at 15, 30, 45, 60, 90 and 120 min after starting the ingestion of meal
2. Optionally, the following concentrations may be measured at the same time points:
2.1. Plasma cholecystokinin (CCK)
2.2. Glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP)
2.3. Glugacon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1)
2.4. Peptide YY (PYY)
3. Body weight measured with calibrated digital scale at every study visit after 10-12 h overnight fasting
