Soluble Corn Fiber Effect on Bone Resorption in Post Menopausal Women

NCT02416947 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 14

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This study is designed to study the dose response effect of continuous Soluble Corn Fiber (SCF) intake over a 50 day period on bone resorption in healthy post menopausal women using the 41Calcium methodology. To further understand the dose response effect of SCF bone biomarkers will be studied.

Our hypothesis is that soluble corn fiber will reduce bone resorption in a dose dependent manner in comparison to placebo when estimated by urinary 41Calcium excretion as well as bone biomarkers of resorption.
