What This Study Did, in Plain Language

What Was Tested

The paper reports a study of Copper (Supplement), published as a randomized controlled trial.

Objective: to evaluate the effects of a new glycemia targeted specialized supplement (GTSS) compared to a standard breakfast on postprandial blood glucose (PPG).

Why It Was Studied

The standardized breakfast was isoenergetic compared to the GTSS, differing on macronutrients distribution.

Intermittent scanning continuous glucose monitoring system (isCGM) determined the difference between the interventions regarding the incremental area under the curve (iAUC) of the PPG (3 hours after intervention), as a primary endpoint; secondary endpoints were the difference between the interventions regarding the glycemic peak, postprandial glucose excursion (PPGE), mean blood glucose (MBG) and time in range (TIR).

Who Took Part

The age groups tagged for this paper are adults, middle-aged adults and older adults.

How the Study Was Run

In design terms this was a randomized and crossover study.

The participants were allocated by chance, so the Copper (Supplement) group and the comparison group should start out alike.

Each person switched between Copper (Supplement) and the comparison at some point, usually with a gap in between.

What Was Measured

Intermittent scanning continuous glucose monitoring system (isCGM) determined the difference between the interventions regarding the incremental area under the curve (iAUC) of the PPG (3 hours after intervention), as a primary endpoint; secondary endpoints were the difference between the interventions regarding the glycemic peak, postprandial glucose excursion (PPGE), mean blood glucose (MBG) and time in range (TIR).
