L-phenylalanine

Peak postprandial blood glucose

lowers

Who: Healthy normal-weight young men, part B, randomised double-blind three-way crossover; peak plasma glucose after a 300-mL mixed-nutrient drink (Ensure Plus, 400 kcal) taken 30 min after the intragastric bolus; Phe-10 g arm against control suspension
Dose studied: 10 g L-phenylalanine as a single 100-mL intragastric bolus via nasogastric tube, suspended in ORA-Plus, 30 min before the mixed-nutrient drink
