Onderzoek toont aan dat BENEO's Palatinose™ de productie van GLP-1 bij volwassenen met overgewicht stimuleert
Een nieuwe studie onder leiding van Prof. Andreas Pfeiffer (Zhang et al. ) toont aan dat het gebruik van het natuurlijke, slimme koolhydraat Palatinose™ de afgifte van gunstige darmhormonen zoals GLP-1 stimuleert bij volwassenen met overgewicht, zelfs wanneer ze na de inname nog een maaltijd eten. De bevindingen tonen aan dat Palatinose™ (isomaltulose) een positief effect heeft op metabolische parameters die belangrijk zijn om het lichaamsgewicht, de bloedsuiker en hart- en bloedvaten gezond te houden.
