Study Summary

This study is an open-label pilot designed to examine the dose-dependent effects of erythritol, a zero calorie sweetener, on endothelial function. Twenty-four subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus will make three study visits. At each visit, the will consume an orange-flavored beverage containing escalating amounts of erythritol (6, 12, and 18 grams). Endothelial function will be assessed before and two hours after beverage consumption. Endothelial function will be measured as the change in pulse amplitude in response to reactive hyperemia measured in the fingertip by peripheral arterial tonometry. The results will be used to plan a randomized, placebo-controlled study.

Primary Outcome

Change in pulse amplitude in the fingertip in response to reactive hyperemia measured by peripheral arterial tonometry.
