Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to perform dietary intervention studies on a variety of vegetables.


Description:

Plant-based foods have always been an important component of a healthy diet. High intake of plant foods may not only maintain normal bodily functions through the provision of dietary fiber, vitamins, and minerals but also relieve symptoms and prevent diseases. Many studies have pointed out that high intake of plant foods may reduce the incidence of non-communicable disease. Past research investigating the effect of phytochemicals has usually been limited to single substances or single foods. However, a number of researchers have pointed out that phytonutrients and dietary components are likely to act synergistically.Health effects and mechanisms of phytonutrients in combination have not been carefully studied in population settings. The technology of metabolomics has enabled the simultaneous measurement of hundreds of small molecules in biological samples. Exploring the change of metabolites after feeding can not only help us understand the role of plant foods, but may also provide opportunities to assess plant food intake levels.

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Intensities of multiple serum metabolites The outcome measure consists of intensities of multiple serum metabolites from a liquid chromatography/time-of-flight/mass spectrometry (LC/TOF/MS) experiment. Intensity means the level of response variable (a given metabolite) showing the degree of response detected by LC/TOF/MS. Baseline (fasting state before breakfast at 7:30AM)
