Completed

• Conditions: Metabolic Disease

• Registration Number: NCT04662411
• Lead Sponsor: Maastricht University Medical Center

Brief Summary

In this study, we aim to identify a well consumable butyrate/hexanoate-enriched oil that increases circulating SCFA concentrations and improves postprandial substrate metabolism, which could be further used for a long-term study.
