Brown Seaweed Lemon Tea

Single administration of lemon tea containing 500 mg of brown seaweed powder and 50 g of sucrose

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Reduction of glycemic index of ingested foods

Intervention Type DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

Oral administration of the experimental lemon tea powder(56.1 g) and the placebo lemon tea powder (55.6 g) dissolved in water. Each participant will receive both treatment in a cross-over protocol design during 2 visits separated by a 2-weeks period. The day before both intervention, participants will consume a standardised meal for the supper.

Placebo lemon tea

Single administration of placebo lemon tea containing 50 g of sucrose

Group Type PLACEBO_COMPARATOR

Reduction of glycemic index of ingested foods

Intervention Type DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

Oral administration of the experimental lemon tea powder(56.1 g) and the placebo lemon tea powder (55.6 g) dissolved in water. Each participant will receive both treatment in a cross-over protocol design during 2 visits separated by a 2-weeks period. The day before both intervention, participants will consume a standardised meal for the supper.
