Impact of food texture modifications on oral processing behaviour, bolus properties and postprandial glucose responses.

ABSTRACT: Several studies have demonstrated food texture manipulation on oral processing behaviour (OPB). We explored the effect of texture-differences of equivalent carbohydrate load on OPB, bolus properties and postprandial glycaemic responses (PPG). In a randomised cross-over, within-subjects, non-blinded design, healthy male participants (N = 39) consumed fixed portions of white rice (WR) and rice cake (RC) while being video recorded to measure microstructural eating behaviours. PPG was compared between test foods over a period of 120-min, and the bolus properties and saliva uptake at swallow were measured for both test foods. RC displayed higher instrumental hardness, chewiness and Young's modulus than WR (p = 0.01), and participants perceived RC as more springy and sticky than WR (p < 0.001). The RC meal was chewed more per bite (p < 0.001) and consumed at a faster eating rate (p = 0.033) than WR. WR bolus particles were smaller at swallow (p < 0.001) with a larger total surface area (p < 0.001), compared to RC. The glucose response for RC was significantly higher during the first 30-min postprandial period (p = 0.010), and lower in the later (30-120 min) postprandial period (p = 0.031) compared to WR. Total blood glucose iAUC did not differ significantly between WR and RC meals despite their large differences in texture, OPB and bolus properties. Oro-sensory exposure time was a significant predictor of glucose iAUC30min for both test meals (RC, p = 0.003; WR, p = 0.029). Saliva uptake in the bolus was significantly positively associated with blood glucose during the first 30-min postprandial period for the RC meal (p = 0.008), but not for WR. We conclude that food texture modifications can influence OPB and bolus properties which are key contributors to the dynamic evolution of the glycaemic response. Total blood glucose responses were the same for both test foods, though differences in oral processing and bolus properties influenced temporal changes in PPG.

Project description:PurposeOral processing behaviour may contribute to individual differences in glycaemic response to foods, especially in plant tissue where chewing behaviour can modulate release of starch from the cellular matrix. The aim of this study was to assess the impact of chewing time of two starch based foods (brown rice and chickpeas) on bolus properties, in vitro starch digestion and postprandial glycaemic excursion in healthy subjects.MethodsIn a cross-over trial participants (n = 26) consumed two carbohydrates-identical test meals (brown rice: 233 g; chickpeas: 323 g) with either long (brown rice: 41 s/bite; chickpeas: 37 s/bite) or short (brown rice: 23 s/bite; chickpeas: 20 s/bite) chewing time in duplicate while glycaemic responses were monitored using a continuous glucose monitoring device. Expectorated boli were collected, then bolus properties (number, mean area, saliva amylase activity) and in vitro starch digestion were determined.ResultsLonger chewing resulted in significantly (p < 0.05) more and smaller bolus particles, higher bolus saliva uptake and higher in vitro degree of intestinal starch hydrolysis (DH_Schewing time%) than shorter chewing for both foods (brown rice: DH_S%23 s = 84 ± 4% and DH_%S41s = 90 ± 6%; chickpeas: DH_S%20 s = 27 ± 3% and DH_%S37s = 34 ± 5%, p < 0.001). No significant effect of chewing time on glycaemic response (iAUC) (p > 0.05) was found for both meals. Brown rice showed significantly and considerably higher in vitro degree of intestinal starch hydrolysis and glycaemic response (iAUC) than chickpeas regardless of chewing time. No significant correlations were observed between bolus properties and in vitro starch hydrolysis or glycaemic response (p > 0.05).ConclusionDifferences in the innate structure of starch based foods (brown rice compared to chickpeas) have a larger effect on postprandial glucose response than differences in mastication behaviour although oral processing behaviour showed consistent effects on bolus properties and in vitro starch digestion.

Project description:BackgroundStructure and protein-starch interactions in pasta products can be responsible for lower postprandial glycemic responses compared with other cereal foods.ObjectivesWe tested the effect on postprandial glucose metabolism induced by 2 pasta products, couscous, and bread, through their structural changes during mastication and simulated gastric digestion.MethodsTwo randomized controlled trials (n = 30/trial) in healthy, normal-weight adults (mean BMI of 23.9 kg/m2 (study 1) and 23.0 kg/m2 (study 2)) evaluated postprandial glucose metabolism modulation to portions of durum wheat semolina spaghetti, penne, couscous, and bread each containing 50 g available carbohydrate. A mastication trial involving 26 normal-weight adults was conducted to investigate mastication processes and changes in particle size distribution and microstructure (light microscopy) of boluses after mastication and in vitro gastric digestion.ResultsBoth pasta products resulted in lower areas under the 2-h curve for blood glucose (-40% for spaghetti and -22% for penne compared with couscous; -41% for spaghetti and -30% for penne compared with bread), compared with the other grain products (P < 0.05). Pasta products required more chews (spaghetti: 34 ± 18; penne: 38 ± 20; bread: 27 ± 13; couscous: 24 ± 17) and longer oral processing (spaghetti: 21 ± 13 s; penne: 23 ± 14 s; bread: 18 ± 9 s; couscous: 14 ± 10 s) compared with bread or couscous (P < 0.01). Pastas contained more large particles (46-67% of total particle area) compared with bread (0-30%) and couscous (1%) after mastication and in vitro gastric digestion. After in vitro gastric digestion, pasta samples still contained large areas of nonhydrolyzed starch embedded within the protein network; the protein in bread and couscous was almost entirely digested, and the starch was hydrolyzed.ConclusionsPreservation of the pasta structure during mastication and gastric digestion explains slower starch hydrolysis and, consequently, lower postprandial glycemia compared with bread or couscous prepared from the same durum wheat semolina flour in healthy adults.The postprandial in vivo trials were registered at clinicaltrials.gov as NCT03098017 and NCT03104686.

Project description:PurposeFrequent consumption of industrially processed foods has been associated with obesity. However, it is unknown what drives this association. Food textures of industrially processed foods that stimulate energy overconsumption may be an important driver of this association. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the independent and combined effects of food texture and level of industrial food processing (based on the NOVA classification) on daily energy intake and eating behaviour.MethodsEighteen healthy adults (F/M: 11/7, 23 ± 3 y, 22.1 ± 2.0 kg/m2) participated in a 2 × 2 randomized crossover dietary intervention with four conditions (total of 288 meals): hard unprocessed, hard (ultra-)processed, soft unprocessed and soft (ultra-)processed. Daily diets were offered ad libitum and were equal in energy density (1 kcal/g). Food Intake (g) was measured by pre- and post-consumption weighing of the plates. Eating behaviour parameters were derived from video annotations.ResultsDaily energy intake and food intake were, respectively, 33% (571 ± 135 kcal) and 14% (247 ± 146 g) lower in the hard compared to the soft conditions (main texture p < 0.001). Energy intake was lower in both hard conditions compared to the (ultra)processed soft condition (Tukey p < 0.04). Eating rate (g/min) was on average 85% slower (P < 0.001) in the hard compared to the soft conditions (p < 0.001). Level of processing did not affect food intake.ConclusionConsumption of hard-textured foods reduces daily energy intake of (ultra-) processed foods. This preliminary investigation shows that there is great variability in food properties that affect energy and food intake beyond industrial food processing. However, findings should be interpreted with precaution considering the limited sample size of this trial. Future classification systems for public health messaging should include energy intake rate to help reduce overconsumption.Clinical trial registryNCT04280146, https://www.Clinicaltrialsgov , February 21st 2020.

Project description:Introduction: Fatty acids are a major nutrient in dietary fat, some of which are ligands of long-chain fatty acid receptors, including G-protein-coupled receptor (GPR) 40 and GPR120. Pretreatment with GPR40 agonists enhanced the secretion of insulin in response to elevating blood glucose levels after glucose load in a diabetes model, but pretreatment with GPR120 agonist did not ameliorate postprandial hyperglycemia. This study examined whether oral administration of linoleic acid (LA), a GPR40 and GPR120 agonist, immediately before glucose load would affect the elevation of postprandial blood glucose levels in rats. Methods: Male rats and rats with type 1 diabetes administered streptozocin were orally administered LA, trilinolein, α-linolenic acid (α-LA), oleic acid, TAK-875, or TUG-891 immediately before glucose load. Blood glucose levels were measured before, then 15, 30, 60 and 120 min after glucose load. CACO-2 cells were used to measure the uptake of [14C] α-MDG for 30 min with or without LA. Gastric content from rats administered LA was collected 15 and 30 min after glucose load, and blood samples were collected for measurement of glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) and cholecystokinin concentrations. Results: The elevation of postprandial blood glucose levels was slowed by LA but not by trilinolein in rats without promotion of insulin secretion, and this effect was also observed in rats with type 1 diabetes. The uptake of α-MDG, an SGLT-specific substrate, was, however, not inhibited by LA. Gastric emptying was slowed by LA 15 min after glucose load, and GLP-1, but not cholecystokinin, level was elevated by LA 15 min after glucose load. TUG-891, a GPR120 agonist, ameliorated postprandial hyperglycemia but TAK-875, a GPR40 agonist, did not. Pretreatment with AH7614, a GPR120 antagonist, partially canceled the improvement of postprandial hyperglycemia induced by LA. α-LA, which has high affinity with GPR120 as well as LA, slowed the elevation of postprandial blood glucose levels, but oleic acid, which has lower affinity with GPR120 than LA, did not. Conclusion: Oral administration of LA immediately after glucose load ameliorated postprandial hyperglycemia due to slowing of gastric emptying via promotion of GLP-1 secretion. The mechanisms may be associated with GPR120 pathway.
