Study Rationale: This experiment on the effect that the use of personalized low-fat meal plans has on body fat reduction is important for several reasons. First, the details of this research study may equip the public with knowledge to select quality nutrition programs for weight loss responsibly. Second, it may encourage the wellness and fitness community to reconsider the practice of providing clientele with non-personalized meal plans for weight loss, which are not usually designed by accredited dietetic professionals. Third, this study may benefit dietetic professionals by opening the lines of communication between the wellness community and the dietetic community regarding standards of care, and protecting the public by dispelling harmful and erroneous nutrition advice.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Non-Personalized Meal Planning and Personalized Meal Planning and Dietetic Consultation in people with Obesity, run by Central FITT, Inc at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 15 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Jul 2007. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Stacy D Buzan, MS (405-503-2759, oktrial@yahoo.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Pre and Post-Bioelectrical Impedance Body Fat Analysis (time frame: 2 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 3 Jul 2007.
