Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Randomised, single-blind, cross-over design study which invesigates the postprandial response to the acute ingestion of either a liquid preload of 50g of whey protein isolate, casein protein or glucose (control) mixed in 400 mls of water, over 3 visits, one day a week for 3 consecutive weeks.
Intervention code [1] 4176 0
Treatment: Other
Comparator / control treatment
Placebo - 50g glucose powder (same dose as whey & casein) mixed with 400ml water
Control group
Placebo

Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 5566 0
Improved blood lipid and lipoprotein status as well as improved glucose and insulin sensitivity after the ingestion of the whey protein isolate
Timepoint [1] 5566 0
Fasting blood samples taken before liquid preload and then taken post meal (in minutes) - +15, 30, 60, 90, 120, 180, 240, 360.
Primary outcome [2] 5567 0
Improved blood pressure after ingestion of the whey protein isolate.Systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP) and resting heart rate were measured on the left arm of participants with an automated sphygmomanometer (Dinamap ProCare). Subjects rested in a supine position before and during measurements.
Timepoint [2] 5567 0
Blood pressure taken before test meal & liquid preload, and then taken post meal (in minutes) - +30, 60, 90, 120, 180, 240, 360.
Primary outcome [3] 5568 0
Improved vascular endothelial function via Sphygmocor pulse wave analysis (PWA) after the ingestion of the whey protein isolate
Timepoint [3] 5568 0
PWA readings before test meal & liquid preload, then post meal (in minutes) - 30, 60, 90, 120, 180, 240, 360.
Secondary outcome [1] 9378 0
Greater satiety after ingesting the whey protein isolate relative to control.
Timepoint [1] 9378 0
Visual analogue scale (VAS) completed by subjects before test meal & liquid preload, and then post meal (in minutes) - 30, 60, 90, 120, 180, 240, 360.
