Gut supplement tested as new aid for weight loss and diabetes control
NCT ID NCT07252609
Summary
This study tested if taking a sodium butyrate supplement for 12 weeks, along with a reduced-calorie diet, helps people lose more weight than a diet alone. It involved 46 overweight or obese adults, some with type 2 diabetes, to see if the supplement also improved blood sugar, cholesterol, and gut health. Researchers compared the supplement's effects against a placebo (a dummy pill) to find out if it offers real benefits.
