Pre-meals of 3-hydroxybutyrate for People With Type 2 Diabetes
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating 3-hydroxybutyrate (3-OHB) for Ketosis and 2 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 10 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Hyperglycemia following meals in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a common problem. Recently, our group found that oral consumption of the ketone metabolite, 3-hydroxybutyrate (3-OHB), effectively stimulates insulin secretion and delays gastric emptying.The aim of this study is to investigate the dose/response relationship between 3-OHB servings of 0, 10, 20 and 40 grams 30 minutes before an OGTT and, ii) investigate the role of timing by serving 20 grams of 3-OHB at different timepoints ahead of an OGTT (0, 30 and 60 minutes)

Interventions
The aim of this study was therefore to i) investigate the dose/response relationship between 3-OHB servings of 0, 10, 20 and 40 grams 30 minutes before an OGTT and, ii) investigate the role of timing by serving 25 grams of 3-OHB at different timepoints ahead of an OGTT (0, 30 and 60 minutes).
