Green Tea Confections For Managing Postprandial Hyperglycemia-Induced Vascular Endothelial Dysfunction
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Green Tea Concentrate for Hyperglycemia and Cardiovascular Disease. Completed, enrolled 15 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The objective of this study is to formulate and validate a green tea confection (i.e. "gummy" candy) as a strategy to attenuate postprandial hyperglycemia-induced impairments in vascular function. The central hypothesis is that a green tea confection will protect against vascular endothelial dysfunction by suppressing postprandial hyperglycemia. The central hypothesis of this application will be assessed by developing a green tea-containing confection, examining its physiochemical properties and its inhibition of starch digestion, and then validating its vasoprotective activities in healthy humans by assessing its blood glucose-regulating activities.
