Summary

Despite an impressive capacity to induce diabetes remissions, the gastric bypass surgery has been associated with the onset of hyperglycemic peaks, which are very intensive and transient, in formally non diabetic patients. The aim of this study is to study the digestion of starch as compared to that of glucose (same glucose load) before and after gastric bypass surgery in obese patients.

Volunteers will be recruited among the candidates to a gastric bypass, and will be studied before and 3 months after surgery. They will have on each occasion 2 random meals, corresponding to 30g glucose, one made of starch the other made of glucose, both naturally labeled with 13C. The digestion of starch will be assessed with the increase in the plasma 13C-glucose tracer. Plasma samples will be collected for 3 hours.

Some studies have already investigated time of absorption of glucose, but any study has examined the time of digestion of glucose. Other study always used glucose syrup, so they cannot have results about digestion. It is the reason why, in this study, glucose syrup and a starch meal will be taken by the same patient and glycaemia will be compared. In this way, results will be obtained about the kinetic of digestion of starch.

Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

First starch meal then meal with glucose syrup

Before bypass surgery, patients will take randomized meal. One day a starch meal and another day a glucose syrup meal. 3 months after surgery, they will take these 2 randomized meal again, one day the first one, and the day after the other one.
