NCT ID NCT06344377

Summary

This study tested whether taking betaine, a natural substance, for 8 weeks could help overweight and obese women. Researchers wanted to see if it could reduce body fat, improve cholesterol levels, and affect genes related to fat metabolism. The study involved 54 women who were randomly assigned to take either betaine or a placebo pill, and neither they nor the researchers knew who got which.
