The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of NUTRIOSE® supplementation on body composition, satiety, and determinants of metabolic syndrome in overweight men.
Previous trials of fiber supplementation have yielded equivocal results on body composition, satiety, and determinants of metabolic syndrome. This double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study was conducted to determine the effects of a proprietary soluble dextrin dietary fiber supplement (NUTRIOSE®) on these parameters in overweight males.
