Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Three types pasta products manufactured from either 100% durum wheat semolina or mixture of 70% durum wheat semolina and 30% red sorghum flour (red sorghum-containing pasta) and mixture of 70% durum wheat semolina and 30% white sorghum flour (white sorghum-containing pasta) will be used in this study.
Each of the 30 subjects recruited for the study will consume each of the 3 pasta products once only. The pasta products will be presented as breakfast on 3 separate morning, 7-14 days apart in a randomised crossover design, after an overnight fast of 10-12 hours.

Allocation to intervention
Randomised controlled trial
Procedure for enrolling a subject and allocating the treatment (allocation concealment procedures)
Allocation is not concealed
Methods used to generate the sequence in which subjects will be randomised (sequence generation)
Thirty healthy subjects recruited through advertisement in newspapers, flyers and personal contact, will attend 3 sessions to consume the 3 test meals. The test meals will be administered in a random order assigned by computer-generated random numbers concealed in opaque envelopes.
