The objective of this study is to compare the effect of different levels of carbonation isocaloric beverages on glycemic response (using protocol based on standardized glycemic index testing methodology), gastric emptying and satiety. It is hypothesized that carbon dioxide will delay gastric emptying, and in turn, attenuate glycemic response and enhance satiety. The use of a non-nutrient (gas) in improving glycemic response and satiety would have important health implications for the beverage industry.
