Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The primary endpoint changes in fecal flora composition and shortchain fatty acid metabolism in fecal samples after 3, 6, 10, 13, 16 and 20 weeks. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary endpoints are changes in insulin resistance/fatty acid metabolism (assessed by hyperinsulinemic normoglycemic clamp and stable isotope glucose/palmitate infusion) and postprandrial lipidmetabolism (mixed meal test) at baseline and after 10 and 20 weeks). Finally, changes in gutregulatory hormones in plasma (leptin, adiponectin and GLP-1) will be assessed. | — |
