Summary

This is a double-masked, crossover, randomized, controlled study that aims to evaluate, in women with obesity, a possible influence of wheat gluten on food choices, body weight, resting metabolism and circulating inflammation markers and adipokines. The volunteers will be randomized into two groups, half of them will initiate the experiment by taking 2 placebo muffins daily for 4 weeks (Placebo phase) and the remnant volunteers will take 2 corn muffins containing 12g of gluten/each for 4 weeks (Gluten phase). At the 1st, 4th and 8th experimental weeks will be evaluated body weight, body composition, lipid profile, glucose, insulin, leptin, adiponectin, and inflammatory markers.
