Official title
Long-term Consumption of Resistant Starch Type-4 (RS4): Implications for Obesity and Chronic Disease
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The primary objective of the current proposal is to determine the effectiveness of long-term consumption of Fibersym® RW for improving blood lipids (including cholesterol) and body composition. The overall goal of this clinical research is to determine the potential effects that RS4 consumption may have on the prevention of obesity and obesity-related diseases. Fiber in the form of RS4 will be used for the proposed study, given that fiber has been shown to have many beneficial effects on modifiable risk factors associated with obesity-related diseases. Using a long-term randomized-controlled intervention design, blood lipids (total cholesterol, LDL-c, HDL-c, triglycerides) and body composition will be assessed. The investigators anticipate reductions in cholesterol and body fat percentage following 8-weeks of Fibersym® RW consumption.
