Effect of Anthocyanins Extracted From Purple Potatoes on Healthy Study Subjects' Postprandial Glycemia and Insulinemia

A randomized, single-blind cross-over clinical nutrition trial will be conducted. The effects of yellow-fleshed potatoes and yellow-fleshed potatoes supplemented with anthocyanins extracted from purple-fleshed potatoes on healthy men's postprandial glycemia and insulinemia will be compared. Additionally, the postprandial metabolism and metabolites, and the appearance and metabolism of the flavonoids and their metabolites is studied in plasma, urine and feces.
