研究概览
简要总结
To conduct a randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, cross-over trial in a population of chronically, moderately dehydrated people comparing two waters on hydration status.
详细描述
A randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled cross-over study design will be used to evaluate the effects of consumption of alkaline water against reverse osmosis water. The study is of 5 weeks' duration, with evaluation at baseline, 2 weeks (beginning of wash-out period), 3 weeks (end of wash-out period), and 5 weeks.
