简要总结
This is a dietary intervention study in students and staff of Westlake University, which is designed to provide evidence in support of N-of-1 methods as an approach to advance personalized nutrition. The primary aim is using a series of N-of-1 trials to determine the impacts of a high fat, low carbohydrate diet (HF-LC) on glucose metabolism and gut microbiota in subjects versus a low fat, high carbohydrate diet (LF-HC) at both the individual and group level.
详细描述
This study will employ a series of individual N-of-1 trials comparing a high fat, low carbohydrate diet (HF-LC) to a low fat, high carbohydrate diet (LF-HC). Participants will enter the study on a usual diet and will have a 6-day run in period for diet planning and baseline data collection before beginning their intervention. The HF-LC or the LF-HC will be randomized as the starting intervention followed by a wash-out period lasting for 6 days with normal diet between two interventions to eliminate previous intervention effects. Then the participants will be provided with the other diet. Both HF-LC and LF-HC last for 6 days in each set which consists of two wash-out periods and two intervention periods. There will be 3 sets in this study and investigators will aggregate the results of the completed N-of-1 trials across all participants to estimate the group level impacts of HF-LC compared to LF-HC.
