Oxidative Stress and L-CBMN Cytome Assay Parameters Levels in Severely Obese With BMI ≥ 35kg/m2 After 3 Weeks 567 kcal Hospital Controlled VLCD
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Very low calorie diet for Obesity and 2 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 26 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Obesity leads to physiological imbalance resulting in hyperglycemia, dyslipidaemia and inflammation and can generate systematic oxidative stress through multiple biochemical mechanisms. Oxidative stress (OS) can induce DNA damage and inhibit DNA repair mechanisms. Very low calorie diet (VLCD) have rapid positive effect on weight loss, glucose homeostasis, insulin resistance, inflammation and OS. The aim of this study is to determine the effect of a three-week VLCD on anthropometric, biochemical and genomic parameters in individuals with BMI ≥ 35kg/m2.
