Official title:
Effects of Spirulina Supplementation on Anthropometric Measurements, Lipid Profile, Appetite, Liver Enzymes, Inflammatory and Glycemic Markers on Overweight or Obese Adults
In this double-blind Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial investigators are going to study the effects of Spirulina supplementation on anthropometric measurements, lipid profile, appetite, liver enzymes, inflammatory and glycemic markers in a sample of overweight or obese adults.
A sample of 40 obese and overweight subjects will be recruited from Nutrition And Diet
Therapy Clinic Of Shahid Beheshti Medical University.
This study is a double-blind Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial, that subjects will be
randomly allocated to spirulina or placebo group according to the Random permuted blocks
within strata method based on BMI. Subjects will consume 2 g spirulina daily (4 tablets of
500mg), whereas the control group are going to receive identical placebo tablets. Subjects
are asked to maintain their usual physical activity level during the intervention period and
also avoid taking any other supplements or medications without consulting the investigators.
Intervention period is designed to be 12 weeks that has been determined sufficient to record
changes of study parameters. At the beginning of the study and after 12 weeks of
intervention, morning blood samples will be collected after 12 h of fasting. Anthropometric
parameters will be also measured at the beginning, week 6 and after 12 weeks of intervention.
Subjects will be followed through social network to ensure their compliance with the study.
