Clinical Trial Summary

The study hypothesis is that iodine supplementation will lower serum TSH and leptin concentrations and thereby improve the lipid and glucose profile.


Clinical Trial Description

The study will be a double blind, placebo controlled intervention study in obese women living in the Atlas foot mountains in Morocco, an iodine deficient area. Eligible subjects will be randomized into intervention and control group and will receive the respective supplement for 6 months. At baseline, midpoint and endpoint anthropometric as well as metabolic profile will be assessed. A health questionnaire will further be administered monthly when the tablets for the following month are distributed. Urine samples to determine iodine status will also be collected monthly. ;
