Arm Label

Dietary Supplement/insulin sensitivity

Sugar Pill

Dietary Supplement 2

Arm Description

The first study supplement contains resveratrol that may improve insulin sensitivity and Leucine.Resveratrol 50mg with leucine 1.11 g. - one tablet taken twice a day by mouth

Neutral treatment Placebo - one tablet taken twice a day by mouth

2nd study supplement contains resveratrol and HMB which may stimulate protein building.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Glucose Control
We will evaluate the effects of resveratrol/leucine and resveratrol/HMB for their ability to control glucose levels in persons without diabetes but with impaired fasting glucose

Secondary Outcome Measures

Metabolic Markers
Secondary assessments will examine the effect of these nutritional supplements versus placebo on inflammation, fasting lipids, HbA1C, and fructosamine, longer term metabolic markers of risk in diabetes

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The study will evaluate the effects of resveratrol/leucine and resveratrol/HMB for their ability to control glucose levels in persons without diabetes but with impaired fasting glucose. Secondary assessments will examine the effect of these nutritional supplements versus placebo on inflammation, fasting lipids, HbA1C, and fructosamine, longer term metabolic markers of risk in diabetes.
Detailed Description
This will be a 28-day randomized controlled trial of the effects of a nutraceutical preparation on glycemic control in non-diabetic individuals with impaired glucose tolerance (IGT). IGT will be defined by American Diabetes Association criteria, as outlined in the list of inclusion and exclusion criteria (copy attached). There will be two active treatment arms and a placebo arm (3 arms total, n=12 completed subjects per arm). Following screening for inclusion/exclusion criteria and obtaining informed consent, subjects will be enrolled in the study and provided instructions to maintain their usual dietary pattern and physical activity level. If recent physical examination and medical history are not available; H&P will be conducted and recorded for each enrolled subject. Subjects will be instructed to follow a 12-hour fast starting on day -1, and on the morning of day 0 fasting blood is drawn for analyses indicated below and the supplements are distributed. Supplements are distributed using a blinding protocol and a variable, known pill allotment in order to assess compliance via standard pill counts. Pill bottles and all unused supplements are returned at seven day intervals, with new supplies being distributed at that time. Fasting blood samples are obtained on days 0, 7, 14 and 28. Samples from each day are analyzed for glucose and insulin. Samples from days 0, 14 and 28 are also analyzed for fructosamine, C-peptide, glucagon and F2-isoprostanes. A75 g oral glucose tolerance test administered on days 0 and 28.

Arm Description
2nd study supplement contains resveratrol and HMB which may stimulate protein building.
Intervention Type
Dietary Supplement
Intervention Name(s)
Resveratrol
Intervention Description
A blend of low dose resveratrol and either leucine or HMB will be useful nutraceutical strategies for the control of elevated blood glucose in non-diabetic individuals with elevated fasting glucose. The proposed project is designed to evaluate this hypothesis by comparing the effects of resveratrol (50 mg)/leucine (1.11 g) administered twice daily (bid).
Intervention Type
Dietary Supplement
Intervention Name(s)
resveratrol /HMB
Intervention Description
resveratrol (50 mg)/HMB (500 mg) twice daily (bid) with placebo on fasting blood glucose, glucose tolerance, insulin, C-peptide, glucagon, fructosamine and F2-isoprostanes in non-diabetic subjects with elevated fasting blood glucose.
