Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The present study was designed to evaluate the impact of a nutritionally balanced conventional meal replacement diet with caloric restriction (intervention for 8 weeks) in Taiwanese obese subjects. Various parameters like anthropometric (body weight, body fat, waist circumference), lipid profile (TC, LDL-c and TG), cardiovascular risk factors, glycemic and oxidative markers as well as renal and hepatic markers were evaluated.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The present study was designed to evaluate the impact of a nutritionally balanced conventional meal replacement diet (rich in soy/pea protein and soluble fibers) with caloric restriction in Taiwanese obese subjects. Obese subjects (BMI\>27; n=50, male 23, female 27) were recruited and requested to replace two meals/day (breakfast and lunch or dinner) by balanced nutritional meal replacement diet (equal to 240 kcal) for 8 weeks with one regular meal and make sure the daily target calorie limit should be less than 1500 kcal/day for men and 1200 kcal/day for women.
