NCT ID: NCT05499858 Recruiting - Dietary Intake Clinical Trials

Evaluating Effectiveness of Spices and Herbs to Increase Vegetable Intake Among Military

Start date: November 6, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

"The goal of this study is to evaluate whether the addition of spices and herbs to the vegetables served to military personnel on a large military base can increase vegetable intake as compared to typical vegetable offerings without spices and herbs. A two-phase intervention will be conducted on base at Naval Station Activity Bethesda (NSAB) to evaluate whether the addition of spices and herbs to vegetable dishes can increase vegetable intake amongst military service members. Phase I will involve extensive engagement with key stakeholders involved in current vegetable consumption at NSAB, including military service members, staff dietitians, the health promotion specialist on base, barracks managers, military culinary specialist, unit leaders, morale welfare and recreations/single sailor program leaders, base senior enlisted leaders, and the base commander. Questionnaires will be administered evaluating current barriers to vegetable intake at NSAB, familiarity with and liking of a variety of spices and herbs, and sensory testing of several vegetables with and without spices and herbs. The recipes in the vegetable sensory testing comparisons will be identical other than spices and herbs content. Phase II will involve will focus upon the direct measurement of vegetable intake (primary outcome) and vegetable linking (secondary outcome) among active-duty service members with spices and herbs and without spices and herbs. The vegetables will be provided as part of an entire meal on a "grab and go" plate. The other foods in the meal (proteins, starches, etc.) accompanying the vegetables will be kept consistently paired to vegetable recipes to minimize confounding. Vegetable intake will be assessed via cell phone pictures and liking will be assessed by a single 5-point Likert scale question."

NCT ID: NCT04212546 Completed - Body Weight Clinical Trials

Short and Long-Term Effects of Prebiotic, Probiotic and Synbiotic on Appetite and Dietary Intake

Start date: January 1, 2016
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Prebiotics and probiotics are thought to play a role in appetite control and body weight regulation; but little is known about this topic. This study was planned to examine the effects of inulin and Lactobacillus casei 431 on short and long term fasting, satiety, dietary intake, and serum hunger and satiety hormone levels. The study consisted of 2 phases. In the first phase, a double-blind, randomized, crossover study design was used, and it was performed with 16 healthy male participants aged 19-30 years. In this phase, the prebiotic (200mL milk+16g inulin), probiotic (200mL milk + Lactobacillus casei 431 [>106 cfu/mL]+16g maltodextrin), synbiotic (200mL milk+16g inulin + Lactobacillus casei 431 [>106 cfu/mL]) and control (200mL milk+16g maltodextrin) test drinks were consumed with a standard breakfast on four separate test days by one week intervals, and their effects on dietary intake, hunger, satiety and appetite were assessed. The second phase was performed with 21 healthy male participants aged 19-30 years, using a placebo-controlled double-blind, randomized study design. Participants consumed the control (200mL milk+16g maltodextrin) or synbiotic (200mL milk+16g inulin+ Lactobacillus casei [>106 cfu/mL]) test drinks for 21 days with their habitual diet. At the beginning and end of the intervention, blood samples were collected at 0., 30., 60. and 120. minutes following the test day protocol to analyse serum glucose, insulin, ghrelin, obestatin and PYY (peptide tyrosine tyrosine) levels. In addition, dietary intake, hunger, satiety and appetite of participants were compared.

NCT ID: NCT04076592 Completed - Breastfeeding Clinical Trials

NUTRIPROTECT-Children Nutrition as a Protective or Health-risk Factor

My-Milk-2
Start date: February 1, 2018
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Despite the intensive worldwide research dedicated to the nutrition and faecal microbiota, the studies that follow the link between the early nutrition, initial intestinal microbiota, and development of children over a longer time period are limited. From 2010 to 2013, the investigators conducted a study "My-Milk" in Slovenia. From 185 participating pregnant women involved in the detailed part of the protocol (comprising of 4-days weighed dietary record, visits at clinic and biological sample collection), 152 participants completed the study at the child's first year of age. Five of the participants bore twins whose data was excluded from the research because infant's identity was not consistently followed throughout the research. In addition to studying the microbiota and fatty acid composition of breast milk and the initial development of intestinal microbiota of breastfed babies, the investigators also monitored the diet of expecting and nursing participants, concentration of vitamin D in serum and bone mineral density in participating mothers and children. The investigators performed anthropometric measurements of children during the first year of age. All singleton children who have completed My-Milk study (N= 147) will be invited in the follow-up study "My-Milk-2". The first step of the proposed study will be the evaluation of nutritional status of children aged 6 to 7 years in 2017/2018, including the assessment of the body composition (bone density, percentage of fat and muscle tissue), health indicators (blood pressure, blood cholesterol, frequency and severity of infections) and fecal microbiota. The obtained data of My-Milk and My-Milk-2 studies will enable the prospective cohort study to be carried out on the effects of early nutrition and various factors of mother and child during the first year of age on the health and developmental status of children aged 6- 7 years. The project results will significantly improve the progress in research areas of public health and nutrition. The interactions along the axis nutrition in early childhood, gut microbiota composition/ diversity and potential health problems in later life are still not fully explored. The investigators expect the results of the proposed study will contribute to the scientific development in this field in global prospective. The acquired information will also be an excellent basis for development of new dietary guidelines for children.
