Interventions

  • Balanced diet high in Slowly Digestible Starch and Resistant Starch — OTHER
    Diet where all the starchy foods were selected based on their SDS and RS content. This diet needs to be easy to apply by subjects. It will be consumed during 2 months
  • Balanced diet low in Slowly Digestible Starch and Resistant Starch — OTHER
    Diet where all the starchy foods were selected based on their SDS and RS content. This diet needs to be easy to apply by subjects. It will be consumed during 2 months

Study Details

To study the potential impact of a diet rich in both Slowly Digestible Starch (SDS) and Resistant Starch (RS), we propose a 2-month nutritional intervention study in which we will study the evolution of carbohydrate variability and metabolism and health-related parameters in 40 volunteers with insulin resistance. Regular sampling of blood, urine and faeces as well as continuous measurement of blood glucose levels will be performed to assess changes in blood glucose levels, insulin resistance, lipid metabolism, inflammation and the composition of the microbiota following the introduction of starch products rich in SDS and RS into the diet.

Arms

  • Active Comparator: High SDS-RS diet
    Balanced diet containing high levels of Slowly digestible Starch (SDS) and Resistant Starch (RS)
  • Placebo Comparator: Low SDS-RS diet
    Balanced diet containing low levels of Slowly digestible Starch (SDS) and Resistant Starch (RS)

Primary Outcome Measure

Change in MAGE measured on 3 occasions between diets High or Low in SDS and RS [ Time Frame: Evaluations done before, after 1 week and after 2 months on a diet ]
