Design
Allocation: RandomizedIntervention Model: Parallel AssignmentIntervention Model Description: This experimental study is a 2-group randomized, clinical trial comparing a 4-day energy balance diet plus oral BPA consumption at 50 ug/kg body weight (Diet+BPA) vs. 4-day energy balance diet plus oral placebo consumption (Diet+No BPA). Forty participants will be randomized to Diet+BPA and Diet+No BPA and will reside in a supervised environment at Cal Poly's sleep research facilities for 6 days (2-day baseline run-in, followed by 4-day treatment). Main outcome measures (muscle insulin sensitivity and hepatic glucose suppression) will be assessed at baseline and treatment periods.Masking: Double (Participant, Outcomes Assessor)Masking Description: This study will be a double-blinded study. Research staff collecting data and participants will not know treatment allocation.Primary Purpose: Treatment

Evidence linking bisphenol A exposure with diabetes risk remains mainly associative in nature, and mechanism linking bisphenol A to type 2 diabetes remains unclear. The investigator's preliminary data suggests that in young adults, single oral BPA consumption significantly decreased glucose, insulin, and C-Peptide responses to an oral glucose tolerance test, suggesting that immediate consumption of bisphenol A has an effect on muscle insulin sensitivity, hepatic glucose suppression and/or digestion and absorption to lower blood glucose, insulin, and C-Peptide concentrations. The present experimental study evaluating the effects of bisphenol A over several days on the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes will directly assess each of these potential mechanisms using gold standard measures (euglycemic hyperinsulinemic clamp technique and hepatic glucose suppression with glucose stable isotope infusion, and fecal microbiota).
