Clinical Trial Summary

The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of soluble corn fiber (SCF) on bone mineral content (BMC) and bone mineral density (BMD) in pre-pubertal boys and girls. The hypothesis to be tested is: SCF will lead to greater increase of BMD, as measured with densitometry in both low calcium as well as high calcium intakes compared to placebo.


Clinical Trial Description

Main objective To investigate the effects of soluble corn fiber (SCF) supplementation on bone mineral content (BMC) and bone mineral density (BMD) in pre-pubertal boys and girls.

Secondary objectives

The secondary objectives are:

To investigate changes in bone formation and bone resorption markers in response to soluble corn fiber supplementation in the diet of prepubertal boys and girls consuming adequate calcium intake vs placebo To investigate changes in body composition in response to soluble corn fiber supplementation in the diet of prepubertal boys and girls consuming adequate calcium intake vs placebo

Hypothesis Soluble corn fiber would lead to improved BMC and BMD accrual in pre-pubertal children compared to placebo.

Study design The proposed study is a double blind, randomized, single center, parallel design trial

Duration of study The duration of the study intervention would be 12 months ;
