Brief Summary:
Aim of the study is to investigate health effects of oats and oat derived components, in human intervention studies, with the purpose to build new knowledge for development of cardiometabolic protective foods.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Postprandial Glucose Regulation Combination Product: Oat Beverage 1 Combination Product: Oat Beverage 2 Combination Product: Oat Beverage 3 Combination Product: Oat Beverage 4 Combination Product: Control product Not Applicable

Detailed Description:
The overall goal is to increase the knowledge which can be used for the development of food products with anti-diabetic properties, with the purpose to facilitate healthier food choices for people. More specifically the primary purpose of this project is to evaluate effects in healthy humans on cardiometabolic test markers of oat and oat based product. The new knowledge will form a base for the development of oat based food products with added health values.

Arm Intervention/treatment
Placebo Comparator: Control product
A glucose solution (glucose and water) based on 42 gram carbohydrates.
Combination Product: Control product

Experimental: Oat Beverage 1
The test product is an oat based beverage with added vegetable oil. The test portion is based on 42 gram available carbohydrates and consumed as a breakfast meal prior to determinations of test variables in the morning.
Combination Product: Oat Beverage 1
Oat based beverage with added different concentration of extracted oat component.

Experimental: Oat Beverage 2
The test product is an oat based beverage with added vegetable oil. The test portion is based on 42 gram available carbohydrates and consumed as a breakfast meal prior to determinations of test variables in the morning.
Combination Product: Oat Beverage 2
Oat based beverage with added different concentration of extracted oat component.

Experimental: Oat Beverage 3
The test product is an oat based beverage with added vegetable oil. The test portion is based on 42 gram available carbohydrates and consumed as a breakfast meal prior to determinations of test variables in the morning.
Combination Product: Oat Beverage 3
Oat based beverage with added different concentration of extracted oat component.

Experimental: Oat Beverage 4
The test product is an oat based beverage. The test portion is based on 42 gram available carbohydrates and consumed as a breakfast meal prior to determinations of test variables in the morning.
Combination Product: Oat Beverage 4
Oat based beverage with added different concentration of extracted oat component.




Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Blood glucose regulation [ Time Frame: 0 - 5.5 hours ( at fasting and then repeatedly after breakfast and Standardize lunch) ]
    Postprandial blood glucose regulation (incremental area under the curve) acute after intake of the test products and at forthcoming meals within 5.5 hours after consumption of test products.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Serum insulin [ Time Frame: 0 - 5.5 hours ( at fasting and then repeatedly after breakfast and Standardize lunch) ]
    Acute effects of postprandial serum insulin concentrations (incremental area under the curve) after intake of the test products.

  2. plasma GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1 ) [ Time Frame: 0 - 5.5 hours ( at fasting and then repeatedly after breakfast and Standardize lunch) ]
    Gastro-intestinale hormones involved in appetite and metabolic regulation

  3. IL (interleukin)-6 [ Time Frame: 0 - 5.5 hours ( at fasting and then repeatedly after breakfast and Standardize lunch) ]
    Inflammatory markers in blood

  4. Plasma PYY (peptide tyrosine tyrosine) [ Time Frame: 0 - 5.5 hours ( at fasting and then repeatedly after breakfast and Standardize lunch) ]
    Gastro-intestinale hormones involved in appetite and metabolic regulation

  5. IL- 1beta [ Time Frame: 0 - 5.5 hours ( at fasting and then repeatedly after breakfast and Standardize lunch) ]
    Inflammatory markers in blood


Other Outcome Measures:
  1. Subjective appetite sensations [ Time Frame: 0 - 5.5 hours ( at fasting and then repeatedly after breakfast and Standardize lunch) ]
    Determined with VAS (visual analogue scale) scales (0-100 mm) as a range of subjective sensations related to appetite (such as hunger, desire to eat or fullness)

  2. Breath hydrogen concentrations [ Time Frame: 0 - 5.5 hours ( at fasting and then repeatedly after breakfast and Standardize lunch) ]
    Indicator of gut fermentation

  3. Mood (valence and activity) [ Time Frame: 0 - 5.5 hours ( at fasting and then repeatedly after breakfast and Standardize lunch) ]
    Determined with VAS (visual analogue scale) scales 0-100 mm
