Trial summary

The increase in diabetic population of the world is among the top ten causes of death; with diabetes always high on the list of causes of death. Diabetes is always relative to other major causes of death, (e.g. in cerebral vascular disease, cardiovascular disease and renal disease). Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Effect of High Fiber and Sugar Free Biscuits in Diabetics Population

The increase in diabetic population of the world is among the top ten causes of death; with diabetes always high on the list of causes of death. Diabetes is always relative to other major causes of death, (e.g. in cerebral vascular disease, cardiovascular disease and renal disease).

The eating habits and patterns of the diabetic patient are the main causes for poor glycemic control. In epidemiological studies, high fiber and low sugar dietary intake can significantly reduce the incidence of diabetes.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of high fiber sugar-free biscuits in regulating blood glucose in pre-diabetic subjects.

The study will be conducted in three periods:

Period-I:

The recruitment of 60 pre-diabetic subjects:

Subjects of blood glucose levels "Impaired fasting glucose; IFG": fasting blood glucose ≧ 100 mg / dL, < 126 mg / dL or "Impaired glucose tolerance; IGT": 2 hours postprandial blood glucose ≧ 140mg/dL, < 200 mg/dL or clinically judged to be mild or moderate diabetes mellitus (HbA1c < 9%).

In addition to perform pre-test, all subjects also need to complete nutrition counseling and nutrition education .

All 60 subjects are randomly selected into two groups, Group-1,30 subjects, (Placebo group, normal fiber and normal sugar biscuit group), Group-2, 30 subjects, (Experimental group, high fiber and sugar free biscuit group)

The period-II:

Duration: 8 weeks Group-1,30 subjects, (Placebo group, normal fiber and normal sugar biscuit group) , All 30 subjects consume 3 servings of Low-fiber, normal sugar biscuits daily.

Group-2, 30 subjects, (Experimental group, high fiber and sugar free biscuit group) All 30 subjects consume 3 serving of high-fiber, and sugar free biscuits (containing 16 grams of fiber) daily.

Post-period:

Blood samples of all 60 subjects will be collected to compare with period-I and period-II at the first day of 9th week.

Report of expectation:

The purpose of this study is to help the pre-diabetic subjects to reduce the risk of becoming diabetic through the consuming of high fiber and sugar free biscuits and nutrition education.

The period-II:

Duration: 8 weeks Group-1,30 subjects, (Placebo group, normal fiber and normal sugar biscuit group), All 30 subjects consume 3 serving of Low-fiber, normal sugar biscuits daily.

Group-2, 30 subjects,(Experimental group, high fiber and sugar free biscuit group) All 30 subjects consume 3 serving of high-fiber, and sugar free biscuits(containing 16 grams of fiber) daily.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing High fiber sugar free biscuit in people with Impaired Glucose Tolerance, run by China Medical University Hospital at 1 site in Taiwan.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

What does the primary outcome measure?

HbA1c (time frame: up to 8 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?
