About this study

Official title: Comparison of the Efficacy of Vitamin D-fortified Bread Versus Vitamin D Supplement in Healthy Adults: a Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial

The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of daily intake of fortified bread with vitamin D on serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D level, glycemic and lipidemic status in healthy subjects compared to vitamin D supplement.

Read the detailed description

Sixty apparently healthy subjects will be selected. Participants who are receiving vitamin D, calcium or omega-3 supplements within the last three months will be excluded. Subjects will be assigned randomly to one of the three intervention groups: 1.fortified bread+placebo,2. plain bread+vitamin D supplements,3. plain bread+placebo. Each participant will consume 50 g of bread and supplement or placebo every day for 2 months.

At the first and last visits, dietary and laboratory assessments will be performed for all subjects. Primary outcomes are improvement in vitamin D status and secondary outcome is improvement of glycemic and lipidemic markers and prevention of problems related to hypovitaminosis D.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing fortified bread and supplement in people with Healthy, run by National Nutrition and Food Technology Institute.

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 1 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 Feb 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

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

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

25-hydroxyvitamin D (nmol/L) (time frame: 8 weeks). 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 27 Feb 2019.
