Summary

This study will systematically investigate the effects of a diet with decreased energy density, reduced glycaemic index, and significantly increased dietary fibre, on post-prandial glycaemic response, satiety, gastrointestinal tolerability and gut microbiota composition and function in individuals with excess body weight (Body Mass Index (BMI) 25-35kg/m2).

Hypothesis: The investigators hypothesise that a diet enriched in fibre will be beneficial to post-prandial glycaemic response, well tolerated and satiating, as compared to the standard Western-style diet.
