Summary

This trial will investigate how drinking a low-sugar, high-fiber soda called OLIPOP affects blood sugar levels compared to a regular sugary soda. The study will involve generally healthy adults consuming the

Who is the study for?
This trial is for generally healthy adults interested in the effects of different sodas on blood sugar and appetite. Participants will drink OLIPOP prebiotic soda or traditional cola, then eat a carb-rich meal. They must be available for two clinic visits and consume assigned drinks at home.
What is being tested?
The study compares the impact of OLIPOP, a high fiber prebiotic soda with less sugar, to regular sugary cola on blood glucose levels alone and after eating carbs. It also looks at how these drinks affect hunger, alertness, and total calorie intake over several days.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves commonly consumed beverages like specialty soda and traditional cola, side effects are expected to be minimal but may include changes in digestion due to fiber content in OLIPOP or sugar-related effects from the cola.
