Viscous and gel-forming property of soluble dietary fibre inhibit macronutrient absorption, reduce postprandial glucose
response and may benefit some changes in the body metabolism. However, in our study the increase in satiety was not
related to reduced absorption of glucose as our study did not find any effects of FenuLean on postprandial blood glucose
concentrations. Healthy volunteers do not show changes in post prandial glucose concentration(s) even post consumption
of fibre which is a good sign of maintenance of glucose homeostasis. Currently we are investigating whether FenuLean in
over 100 subjects would have significant effects on postprandial blood glucose response to a larger meal or high energy
meal or subjects with high BMI. The effects on appetite suppression and food intake suggest that FenuLean (fenugreek
flakes) may have a role in the control of food intake in normal individuals.
