Laxation and Satiety Response of Novel Dietary Fibers

NCT01102881 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 36

Last updated 2010-09-09

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Dietary fibers have previously been shown to affect laxation and satiety. Due to differences in structure and physical properties of dietary fibers, these effects may not be consistent across all fibers. Therefore as new dietary fibers are created or discovered the laxative and satiating effects should be investigated in order to verify these effects.
