Study: NCT05021341

Intervention type: DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT
Group type: ACTIVE_COMPARATOR
Intervention: Berberine
Description: For each visit, all participants will report to the laboratory between 0600 - 1000 hours after observing an 8 - 10 hr fast. Participants will ingest the double-blinded supplement (500 mg of berberine) at specific times, the day before and morning of study visits 2 - 5. For each visit, participants will have their heart rate, blood pressure, body mass, and height measured. After final ingestion of their assigned supplementation dose, standard multiple sample phlebotomy approaches will be used to collect 10 mL of venous blood from a forearm vein at 0, 20, 40, 60, 90, and 120 minutes post-supplement ingestion. After donating baseline blood sample (0-min) a standard test meal, white bread, and glucose powder mixed in 250 mL of water. The complete nutritional breakdown of the test meal is anticipated to be 382 kcal, 3.2 grams of fat, 80.6 grams of carbohydrate, and 7.64 grams of protein.

Group type: PLACEBO_COMPARATOR
Intervention: Placebo
Description: For each visit, all participants will report to the laboratory between 0600 - 1000 hours after observing an 8 - 10 hr fast. Participants will ingest the double-blinded supplement (Maltodextrin placebo) at specific times, the day before and morning of study visits 2 - 5. For each visit, participants will have their heart rate, blood pressure, body mass, and height measured. After final ingestion of their assigned supplementation dose, standard multiple sample phlebotomy approaches will be used to collect 10 mL of venous blood from a forearm vein at 0, 20, 40, 60, 90, and 120 minutes post-supplement ingestion.
