Control: sugar matched (matched to currant sugar content) water with polycal
Blackcurrants (200grams) with polycal
Blackcurrants (200grams) with glucose
Greencurrants (200grams) with polycal Sixteen overweight/obese volunteers from the Aberdeen area will be recruited into a randomised controlled study. Volunteers will be randomised into four groups matched for BMI and age and given 200 grams of blackcurrants (which contain anthocyanins) or greencurrants (which naturally contain no anthocyanins), followed by an OGTT.
The OGTT will be carried out with glucose as a simple carbohydrate load or polycal as a complex carbohydrate load.
Volunteers will be randomised into four groups (n=4 per group). One week wash out between treatments

Sixteen overweight/obese volunteers from the Aberdeen area will be recruited into a randomised controlled study. Volunteers will be randomised into four groups matched for BMI and age and given 200 grams of blackcurrants (which contain anthocyanins) or greencurrants (which naturally contain no anthocyanins), followed by an OGTT.
The consumption of the currants will be followed by an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) with Polycal (complex carbohydrate) or glucose (simple carbohydrate) as the carbohydrate load.
The equivalent carbohydrate load will be standardised across the groups
