Dietary Fish Protein in Subjects With Insulin Resistance

NCT00400036 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: PHASE2 · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 24

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The objective of our research project is to determine the effects of fish protein, present in fish, on insulin sensitivity in insulin-resistant human individuals, and its mechanism of action on glucose metabolism. Our hypothesis is that fish protein improves insulin sensitivity, glucose tolerance and plasma lipid profile through an improvement in a primary defect in insulin signaling in overweight and insulin-resistant subjects.
