Summary

The purpose of this study was to assess the acute effects of increasing doses of pinitol on glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity and to evaluate the absorption of pinitol after consumption of an oral nutritive pinitol-enriched beverage in healthy subjects.

Conditions

  • Healthy
  • Insulin Sensitivity

Interventions

DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

Pinitol

Three doses of Fruit Up® (diluted with mineral water to a final volume of 330 ml) were evaluated, and were equivalent to an intake of 2.5, 4.0 and 6.0 g of pinitol. The placebo beverage contained equal amounts of non-polyol carbohydrates with similar macronutrient composition and energy intake as that those obtained through the pinitol beverage, but excluding pinitol.
