Gastrointestinal Hormonal Regulation of Obesity
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Protein powder supplement, standard dosage based on 0.5 gram protein per pound of subject's lean body mass and Protein powder supplement, High Level Protein, based on 1 gram of protein per pound of lean body mass: 25% protein and 45% carbohydrate for Obesity. Completed, enrolled 31 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The objective of this study is to test and determine whether a high protein diet is efficacious, safe and beneficial to curtail food intake and body weight in obese adult human patients and to establish whether neurohormonal mechanisms of a high protein diet induce an early signal of fullness or satiety in a relevant experimental model, focusing on activation of gastric vagal afferents.
