About this study
This study aims to model and present a simulation exercise to assess the nutritional effects of replacing meat-based protein with meat analogues. The hypothesis of our study is to understand if any positive or detrimental effects on nutrition and health will ensue, when people replace a meat-based diet with plant-based and alternative protein substitutes.
Read the detailed description
A total of up 100 participants (Chinese/Malay/Indian), non-vegetarians, aged between 21 to 99 years, literate and numerate will be recruited for this study. Participants will be required to complete a 4-day food record as part of the exercise. To ensure accuracy of food records, participants will be requested to either weigh their foods or take photographs of all food and drink consumed during the duration of the study. After all the food records have been collected, the data will be analysed using food composition tables. Nutritional profiles of all participants will be generated. Animal-based products will then be substituted with plant-based counterparts and a new nutritional profile will be generated for each participant.

Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in Singapore. 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.
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?
Protein (time frame: 4 days). The study lists 6 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

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 2 Dec 2022.
