Gastrointestinal hormones and Ca are associated with bone metabolism. The objective of the present human study was to determine the effect of calcium phosphate on the postprandial circulation of gastrointestinal hormones. A total of ten men participated in the present double-blind, placebo-controlled, cross-over study. The participants were divided into two groups. Of these, one group consumed bread enriched with 1 g Ca (pentacalcium hydroxy-triphosphate, CaP) daily for 3 weeks. The other group consumed placebo bread. After 2 weeks of washout, the intervention was changed between the groups for another 3 weeks. The subjects consumed a defined diet at the beginning (single administration) and at the end (repeated administration) of the intervention periods, and blood samples were drawn at 0, 30, 60, 120, 180 and 240 min. Between 0 and 30 min, the participants consumed a test meal, with or without CaP. The concentrations of gastrointestinal hormones (glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide, glucagon-like peptide (GLP) 1 and GLP2), insulin and glucose were determined. The AUC of GLP1 (total and active) and GLP2 increased significantly after the repeated CaP administrations compared with that after placebo administration. The AUC of insulin and glucose showed no differences between the CaP and placebo administrations. CaP affects the postprandial plasma concentrations of gastrointestinal hormones through the modulation of the intestinal environment, e.g. bile acids and microbiota.
