Sucrase-Isomaltase (SI) Genes and Meal Load

Sponsor: Region Skane

Summary

The goal of this interventional study is to examine whether those patients with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and a reduced abitility do degrade starch and sugar (lowe levels of enzymes) have lower raise in blood glucose after a meal than those with normal expression of enzymes. We also want to examine whether those IBS patients with reduced enzyme levels have increased bowel symptom in relation to this meal. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does reduced ability to degrade starch and sugar due to less enzyme activity lead to lower increase in blood glucose after a meal? Does reduced ability to degrade starch and sugar due to less enzyme activity lead to increased bowel symptoms after a meal?
