Evaluation of Pulse Fibre Supplementation in Obesity and the Metabolic Syndrome: Generating Evidence in Support of Health Claims
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Pulse fibre and Control for Obesity. Completed, enrolled 53 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The recent dramatic increase in obesity has been linked to a reduction of dietary fibre intake. We hypothesized that supplementing the diet of overweight and obesity adults with pulse fibre will improve their metabolic status, chiefly defined as greater weight loss. Other metabolic health improvements may include improved glucose control and reduced inflammatory markers.
