Brief Summary: An altered permeability has been proposed to play an important role in the pathogenesis of several gastrointestinal disorders such as irritable bowel syndrome and inflammatory bowel disease Nutrients derived from food are able to influence the permeability of the intestine and can therefore also affect gastrointestinal symptoms In this study the investigators will investigate the effects of capsaicine and cinnamaldehyde which can be found in hot peppers and cinnamon respectively on gastrointestinal physiology

Objective

To obtain more information about the effects of capsaicin and cinnamaldehyde on the intestine these substances will be infused directly in the duodenum Hereafter the permeability of the intestine gallbladder motility and the effects on satiety will be assessed

Hypothesis

Duodenal capsaicin and cinnamaldehyde infusion induces changes in the intestinal epithelial barrier function by selectively acting on TRPV1 and TRPA1 receptors and releasing serotonin from enterochromaffin cells as determined by the multi sugar permeability test
