简要总结
This study was undertaken to explore the effects of a Thermogenic Composition (TC) composed of dihydrocapsiate, red pepper (Capsicum annuum) fruit extract, citrus (Citrus spp) peel extract, coleus (Coleus forskholi) root extract, and african mango (Irvingia gabonensis) seed extract to support body composition, weight management, and improve parameters related to energy, hunger, and satiety on healthy adult women and men over a 12-week interval.

结局指标
主要结局
Resting Metabolic Rate
时间窗: 12 weeks
Resting metabolic rate (RMR) was measured by MedGem by MicroLife Medical Home Solutions, participants were in quiet, thermo-neutral environment, in a seated position, resting in a comfortable or reclined position for 5-15 minutes prior to measurement, without caffeine, food or exercise for at least four hours, with mouth-piece and nose-clip on, making sure of a good seal around the mouth and nose, holding MedGem device with arm support (e. g., pillow or opposite hand).
Satiety Score
时间窗: 12 weeks
Results obtained from a validated ten-point scale Visual Analog Scale (VAS). On a scale 1 - 10, with the lowest being 1 and the highest being 10.
Blood Pressures
时间窗: 12 weeks
Both systolic and diastolic pressures were measured using the Omron Intellisense digital blood pressure monitor, Model HEM-739. Participants were measured in a seated position, left arm rested on the chair (or table) so that the cuff was at the same level as the heart, returned the palm upward, remained still and not talk.
Glucose Levels
时间窗: 12 weeks
Glucose levels were measured by CardioChek Plus. Participants were measured in a seated position with the index finger cleaned with an alcohol wipe dry until dried, a sterile lancet was used to puncture the skin on the side of the fingertip, around 100 microliter of blood was collected. With the glucose test strip already inserted into the device, 35-40 microliter of blood was applied to the test strip window and results appeared in approximately two minutes after.
Cholesterol Levels
时间窗: 12 weeks
Cholesterol levels were measured by CardioChek Plus. Participants were measured in a seated position with the index finger cleaned with an alcohol wipe dry until dried, a sterile lancet was used to puncture the skin on the side of the fingertip, around 100 microliter of blood was collected.
Body Fat
时间窗: 12 weeks
Body fat were measured by a pre-calibrated Tanita BC-418 Body Composition Analyzer, participants were measured in a standing position with shoes and socks removed, without exercise for at least four hours prior to the measurement, on an empty bladder, with both arms held straight down, not touching sides, inner thighs not touching, and feet cleaned.
Waist and Hip Ratio (WHR)
时间窗: 12 weeks
Waist and hip circumference measurements were measured according to the US National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey III protocol. Participants were measured in a standing position, waist measurement was made at the high point of the iliac crest, hip measurement was made at the maximum extension of the buttocks, tape was parallel to the floor and snug, but not compressing skin.
Heart Rates
时间窗: 12 weeks
Heart rates were measured using the Omron Intellisense digital blood pressure monitor, Model HEM-739. Participants were measured in a seated position, left arm rested on the chair (or table) so that the cuff was at the same level as the heart, returned the palm upward, remained still and not talk.
Body Weight
时间窗: 12 weeks
Body weights were measured by a pre-calibrated Tanita BC-418 Body Composition Analyzer, participants were measured in a standing position with shoes and socks removed, without exercise for at least four hours prior to the measurement, on an empty bladder, with both arms held straight down, not touching sides, inner thighs not touching, and feet cleaned.
