The study examines the effect of black currant on glucose and insulin concentrations after a meal.~Healthy (n= 30) volunteers are recruited to participate in four consecutive visits in the research laboratory, when four meals are served in randomised order. Meals are: black currant puree, black currant and quinoa based snack, quinoa base and liquid containing glucose, fructose and sucrose. The meals contain the same amount of carbohydrates.~In addition to glucose and insulin concentration, cytokine and free fatty acid concentrations are measured after each meal.
