The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if Maqui berry gummy encapsulated (GMM) compared to non-encapsulated (GM) can improve glycemic response in overweight adults. It will also learn about the possible effect of serum antioxidant levels. The main questions it aims to answer are:
Does GMM or GM low the glycemic response in overweight/obese subjects after consuming a carbohydrate rich food?
Does GMM or GM increase antioxidant levels in overweight/obese subjects after consuming a carbohydrate rich food?
Researchers will compare (i) a carbohydrate rich food, (ii) GMM + a carbohydrate rich food, (iii) GM + a carbohydrate rich food to see if Maqui gummy work to control glycemic and antioxidant levels.
Participants will:
Take a carbohydrate rich food, and/or Maqui gummy three times, one week apart Have blood samples collected and answer food questionnaires in each visit
