Lead Sponsor:

Pennington Biomedical Research Center

Conditions:

Insulin Sensitivity

Eligibility:

All Genders

18-65 years

Brief Summary

This study will determine whether the ratio between 24h C-peptide urinary excretion rate and average 24h circulating glucose represent a good correlate of what is measured by the gold standard, i.e. M...

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Healthy male or female
  • Age 18-65 y
  • BMI between 20 kg/m2 and 35 kg/m2 (inclusive)
  • Are willing to consume pre-prepared meals
  • Have completed a high-dose (≥80 mIU/m2/min) euglycemic-hyperinsulinemic clamp during the last five years at Pennington Biomedical. The data from the previous PBRC clamp will be pulled and used in conjunction with data from this study.
  • Willing to have blood and urine stored for future use

Exclusion

  • Major lifestyle changes since the euglycemic-hyperinsulinemic clamp was performed (i.e. gain/lost weight, stopped smoking, began/stop exercise).
  • Unstable weight in the last 3 months \[gain or loss \>10 lb (or 4.5 kg)\]
  • Diagnosed with diabetes
  • Untreated hypertension and average screening blood pressure \>140/90 mmHg
  • Previous bariatric surgery (or other surgeries) for obesity or weight loss
  • Chronic use of medications affecting metabolism or sleep\*
  • History of neurological disease
  • History of cardiovascular disease, or other chronic diseases, that might affect pancreatic or glucose metabolism.
  • Pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding
  • Adherence to special restrained diets (e.g., low-CHO, low-fat, or vegetarian/vegan diets) over the last 3 months. \*Sporadic use of these medications is fine (however, enrollment will depend on a case-by-case basis). If taking sporadically, participants should not be taking the medication for 1-month prior to the first visit.
