Official title
Acute Effect of Supplement Containing L-Arginine on Appetite Suppression and GLP-1 Induction
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Study Summary The goal of this study is to understand whether a dietary supplement containing L-arginine, resveratrol, tart cherry, and vitamin C reduces hunger and increases the release of GLP-1, a hormone associated with appetite suppression and improved glucose regulation. The study will also explore the metabolic effects of the supplement. Main Questions: 1. Does the supplement reduce hunger more effectively than a placebo? 2. Does it enhance GLP-1 release in individuals with overweight or obesity? Participants: * Age: 18-60 years * Body Mass Index (BMI): 25-40 kg/m² * Total participants: 25 * Must maintain usual eating and activity habits during the study. Study Design: * Conditions Tested: High-dose supplement, low-dose supplement, and placebo. * Participants will undergo three separate 2-hour lab visits, each after fasting for 8 hours. * During each visit: * Consume the assigned supplement or placebo. * Eat a standardized meal after a 60-minute rest. * Provide blood samples at eight time points to measure GLP-1 and other metabolic markers. * Rate hunger using a 7-point scale. Benefits and Risks: * Benefits: Participants may not directly benefit, but the findings could lead to new appetite-suppressing supplements that aid in weight loss. * Risks: Include discomfort from blood draws, possible gastrointestinal side effects from the supplement, and allergic reactions. Measures are in place to minimize these risks, such as pre-screening for allergies and using trained personnel for blood collection. This study is triple-blinded, meaning neither the participants, researchers, nor analysts will know which condition is being tested during each visit. Data collected will be anonymized to protect participant privacy.
