No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this randomized crossover trial is determine whether acute consumption of blueberries with different proteins from plants (hemp or pea) or dairy (whey) impact the absorption of blueberry phytochemicals, which could impact the health benefits of blueberries. A secondary purpose is to understand the role that the gut microbiome may play, as well as the impact on urine polyphenol metabolites and potential implications for cardiometabolic health. Researchers will compare four arms: 1) Blueberries; 2) Blueberries + whey protein; 3) Blueberries + pea protein; and 4) Blueberries + hemp protein.
