NCT ID: NCT06656871 Phase: NA Status: COMPLETED Enrollment: 55 Completion: 2023-09-10
Conditions
Nutrition, Healthy, Glucose Metabolism Disorders, Lipid Metabolism Disorders, Dietary Deficiency
Interventions
iron supplementation, Biostimulated lettuce supplementation
Summary
Biostimulants application to vegetables is a useful agronomic approach to reduce the use of pesticides and to improve crop yield and quality by a naturally functionalizing process. The aim of the study is to verify the effects of a nutritional intervention with lettuce Biostimulated by application of seaweed extracts derived from Ecklonia maxima (SwE) in a healthy population in order to assess influence on specific essential minerals like calcium, potassium iron, magnesium, phosphorous (Primary outcome) and metabolisms like glucose, lipid, iron homeostasis (Secondary outcome).
Primary Outcome
Measurement of minerals concentration in participants
