Efficacy of Dietary Fiber Supplementation (Soloways) in Patients With Specific Genetic Polymorphisms (SOLFIBERGP)

February 5, 2024 updated by: S.LAB (SOLOWAYS)
This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial assessed the impact of a dietary fiber supplement (glucomannan, inulin, and psyllium) on weight and metabolic parameters in individuals with obesity-related genetic polymorphisms (FTO, MC4R, LEP, LEPR). Participants were adults aged 18-65 with a BMI ≥ 25 and confirmed genetic predispositions. The study, involving 216 participants (108 per group), ran over 12 weeks with assessments at 0, 4, 8, and 12 weeks. Primary outcome was Body-weight change in %. The study aimed to clarify the role of fiber supplements in genetically predisposed obese individuals.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Fiber Supplementation
The active powder contained 1g glucomannan, 1g inulin, and 3g psyllium per bag.
the subjects recieved fiber supplement containing glucomannan, inulin, and psyllium
Placebo Comparator: Placebo group
The placebo powder composed of maltodextrin and rice flour, carefully selected to mimic the texture and volume of the active powder without providing any active dietary fiber
the subjects recieved placebo
