Bioavailability Study of Hemp Phenolics
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The aim is to determine the bioavailability of the polyphenol fraction form a commercially available hemp hull fiber at two different amounts in generally healthy adults. Additional objectives include determining specific metabolites produced over a 24 to 48-hour period following the hemp fiber consumption. Subjects will consume a study pudding that will be used to deliver a low and a high dose fiber product. Blood samples will be collected to measure background levels of metabolites. At day 0 participants will consume a low dose study product and day 6 the high dose study product and provide blood samples over an 8 hr period after study product consumption, to be followed by a 24 hr blood sample and 48 hr blood sample. Additionally following the low / high dose study product 24 and 48 h urine samples will be collected.

Active Comparator: Low dose fiber Dose esacalation design |
Dietary Supplement: Low dose dietary fiber
Subjects will receive a low dose or high dose of the dietary fiber product in a dose esacalation design

Active Comparator: High dose of fiber Dose escalation design which is one arm with low and followed by high dose |
Dietary Supplement: High dose dietary fiber
Subjects will receive a low dose or high dose of the dietary fiber product in a dose escalation design

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Blood concentration of phenolics from 0 to 8 hours [0 to 8 hours after consumption]
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Blood concentration of phenolics 0 to 24 hours [0 to 24 hours after consumption]
- Urine concentration of phenolics 24 and 48 hours after consumption [cumulative total phenolics at 24 and 48 hours]
- Concentration of Phenolic metabolites in blood and urine [Blood concnetrations at 0 to 8 hours post consumption and cumulative urine concentration 24 hours and 48 hours post consumption]
