Official title
Plasma TMAO and Choline Levels in Individuals With Metabolic Syndrome - Comparison Between Eggs and Choline Supplement Intake
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The objective of this study is to determine the effects of consuming either 3 eggs per day and compare it to daily choline supplement (choline bitartrate) for a dose of approximately 400 mg/day on plasma concentrations of high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-c), trimethylamine N oxide (TMAO) and plasma choline. The goal is to determine if choline given as phosphatidyl choline (from eggs) will have a more beneficial effect on plasma choline and microbiota.
