Clinical Report: Acute Administration of TRPTI™ Improves Incretin Hormone Levels

Overview

This study evaluates the acute administration of TRPTI™ and its effects on GLP-1 and GIP hormone levels in healthy adults. The 300 mg dose of TRPTI™ showed increases in hormone levels detectable within 15 minutes.

Background

Oleoylethanolamide (OEA) is a bioactive lipid mediator involved in metabolic regulation and appetite control. This study investigates the effects of TRPTI™, a formulation of OEA, on incretin hormones.

Data Highlights

Parameter300 mg TRPTI™Placebo
GLP-1 Concentration Increase20-25%Baseline
GIP Concentration IncreaseSignificantBaseline
Reduction in Meal ConsumptionYesNo

Key Findings

  • 300 mg TRPTI™ significantly increased GLP-1 and GIP levels compared to placebo.
  • Elevations in GLP-1 were detectable within 15 minutes post-ingestion.
  • Both TRPTI™ doses were well-tolerated with safety biomarkers remaining normal.
  • Significant changes in circulating DPP-4 levels were observed at later time points.
  • Acute administration of TRPTI™ resulted in a statistically significant reduction in meal consumption.

Clinical Implications

Further research is warranted to explore the role of TRPTI™ in nutritional strategies.

Conclusion

The study indicates that TRPTI™ can enhance incretin hormone levels in healthy adults.
