What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Transform BurnDietary supplement
Also called Active Treatment
Study product Transform Burn contains dihydrocapsiate, red pepper (Capsicum annuum) fruit extract, citrus (Citrus spp) peel extract, coleus (Coleus forskholi) root extract, and african mango (Irvingia gabonensis) seed extract.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Transform Burn | Experimental | Participants were supplied with one bottle of study product (Transform Burn) for each visit, labeled with their participant number. They were required to take the product consisting of 4 capsules per day, taken on an empty stomach at least 30 minutes prior to eating each morning, 5 days on Monday through Friday. Product was taken at the beginning of each visit, except for Week 0 visit for a total of 12 weeks and bottles were returned at each visit. Receives: Dietary Supplement: Transform Burn |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Satiety Score
Results obtained from a validated ten-point scale Visual Analog Scale (VAS). On a scale 1 - 10, with the lowest being 1 and the highest being 10.
Measured: 12 weeks
Resting Metabolic Rate
Resting metabolic rate (RMR) was measured by MedGem by MicroLife Medical Home Solutions, participants were in quiet, thermo-neutral environment, in a seated position, resting in a comfortable or reclined position for 5-15 minutes prior to measurement, without caffeine, food or exercise for at least four hours, with mouth-piece and nose-clip on, making sure of a good seal around the mouth and nose, holding MedGem device with arm support (e. g., pillow or opposite hand).
Measured: 12 weeks
Blood Pressures
Both systolic and diastolic pressures were measured using the Omron Intellisense digital blood pressure monitor, Model HEM-739. Participants were measured in a seated position, left arm rested on the chair (or table) so that the cuff was at the same level as the heart, returned the palm upward, remained still and not talk.
Measured: 12 weeks
Heart Rates
Heart rates were measured using the Omron Intellisense digital blood pressure monitor, Model HEM-739. Participants were measured in a seated position, left arm rested on the chair (or table) so that the cuff was at the same level as the heart, returned the palm upward, remained still and not talk.
Measured: 12 weeks
Glucose Levels
Glucose levels were measured by CardioChek Plus. Participants were measured in a seated position with the index finger cleaned with an alcohol wipe dry until dried, a sterile lancet was used to puncture the skin on the side of the fingertip, around 100 microliter of blood was collected. With the glucose test strip already inserted into the device, 35-40 microliter of blood was applied to the test strip window and results appeared in approximately two minutes after.
Measured: 12 weeks
Cholesterol Levels
Cholesterol levels were measured by CardioChek Plus. Participants were measured in a seated position with the index finger cleaned with an alcohol wipe dry until dried, a sterile lancet was used to puncture the skin on the side of the fingertip, around 100 microliter of blood was collected.
Measured: 12 weeks
Body Fat
Body fat were measured by a pre-calibrated Tanita BC-418 Body Composition Analyzer, participants were measured in a standing position with shoes and socks removed, without exercise for at least four hours prior to the measurement, on an empty bladder, with both arms held straight down, not touching sides, inner thighs not touching, and feet cleaned.
Measured: 12 weeks
Body Weight
Body weights were measured by a pre-calibrated Tanita BC-418 Body Composition Analyzer, participants were measured in a standing position with shoes and socks removed, without exercise for at least four hours prior to the measurement, on an empty bladder, with both arms held straight down, not touching sides, inner thighs not touching, and feet cleaned.
Measured: 12 weeks
Waist and Hip Ratio (WHR)
Waist and hip circumference measurements were measured according to the US National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey III protocol. Participants were measured in a standing position, waist measurement was made at the high point of the iliac crest, hip measurement was made at the maximum extension of the buttocks, tape was parallel to the floor and snug, but not compressing skin.
Measured: 12 weeks
