Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

The aim of this study is to compare the effects of two different protein supplements (partially hydrolyzed whey protein, PHWP vs. partially hydrolyzed gelatin, PHG) on weight loss in obse individuals with metabolic syndrome (METS). These two supplements will contain equal amounts of protein but differ considerably in their amino acid contents. Whey protein is rich in essential amino acids whereas gelatin is rich in proline. In obese individuals with METS, the hypotheses are: * PHWP will augment fat-mass loss and increase lean-mass to fat-mass ration more than PHG. * PHWP will improve insulin action more than PHG. * PHWP will decrease cardiovascular disease risk more than PHG.
