Secondary study designRandomised controlled trial
Scientific title
Study objectives1. To investigate the effects of drinks of differing glycaemic index (GI) on plasma GLP-1 concentrations and subsequent metabolic responses to a meal.
2. To determine if a low GI drink will cause a greater increase in postprandial GLP-1 concentrations and result in improved metabolic response compared to a high GI drink or water at a subsequent meal.

Primary outcome measure(s)

Diet is the first line treatment for Type 2 diabetes, however the optimal diet to promote good glycaemic control is still debated. GLP-1 is being investigated as an agent for the treatment of diabetes, however it has its shortcomings due to its short half life in humans. A specific food that could be consumed before a meal to stimulate release of GLP-1 and thus improve glycaemic control would be highly beneficial to patients, and potentially have fewer side effects and be less invasive than subcutaneous administration of the hormone.
