NCT ID: NCT04841915 Recruiting - Metabolic Syndrome Clinical Trials

A Randomized Controlled Trial of Effects of DAIry PROtein Products on Liver Disease Severity and Metabolism in Patients With Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease.

DAIPRO-NAFLD
Start date: March 15, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The overarching aim of this project is to investigate effects of dietary interventions on nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) severity and to delineate the relationship with improvements in metabolic aberrations in liver-, fat- and muscle tissue, using a panel of state-of-the art techniques. The investigators will conduct a randomized clinical trial with three arms to investigate if micellar cassein isolate and whey protein supplementation as part of a high-protein diet during 4 weeks of weight maintenance and 20 weeks of hypocaloric intake (30% energy restriction) inducing modest weight loss (5% of baseline weight) has beneficial effects on NAFLD severity and metabolic aberrations compared to normal diet in NAFLD patients. It is hypothesized that: (i) a high-protein diet improves liver disease severity and metabolic function compared to a normal protein diet; (ii) Cassein provides greater benefits than whey; and(iii) these effects manifest during both weight maintenance and weight loss.

Whey vs Casein to Combat Post-inflammatory Protein and Muscle Waste in Acute Disease

Start date: December 7, 2017
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study compares three different protein supplements (casein, whey and leucine-enriched whey) and their effect on post-inflammatory muscle waste in a model of acute disease. Each test person will undergo all three interventions. It is believed that leucine is the primary driver of muscle protein synthesis and therefore we hypothesize that leucine-enriched whey and whey are superior to casein in combating post-inflammatory muscle waste, because of its higher leucine content (16%, 11% and 9% leucine, respectively).
