Brief Summary:
This study aims to assess the impact of daily intake of 11 grams of Fermotein™ on gastrointestinal complaints and several other health related biomarkers. Furthermore, consumer acceptance is investigated. The study has a randomized parallel design. Two different treatments will be evaluated e.g. a 18-day intervention with fermotein based meals and a 18-day intervention with control meals. At the start and at the end of the intervention, a blood sample will be collected. Questionnaires about gut complaints, stool consistency and frequency, wellbeing, health complaints or other adverse effects will be collected daily during intervention and up to two days after the intervention.
Detailed Description:
Fermotein™ is a mycoprotein, derived from fungi, especially produced for human consumption. It is high in protein, high in fiber, low in saturated fat and contains no cholesterol. Its functional properties and nutrient content makes them ideal to use as an ingredient for meat alternatives and other vegetarian/vegan food products. This study aims to assess the impact of frequent intake of 11 grams of Fermotein™ powder (dry) on gastrointestinal complaints and several other health related biomarkers.
The primary objective is to investigate gastro-intestinal complaints during 18 days of Fermotein™ consumption. The secondary objective is to assess blood based parameters related to general health and consumer acceptance.
