The Effect of Curcumin on the Development of Prednisolone-induced Hepatic Insulin Resistance

The Effect of Curcumin on the Development of Prednisolone-induced Hepatic Insulin Resistance in Overweight and Obese Participants

homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance is calculated before and after intervention

Measured by MR spectroscopy of the liver (unit: %)

Estimated by collecting urin for 4-5 hours, measuring volume of urine and urea concentration

Feces sample before and after intervention

subcutaneously, interstitial measurement (concentration of glucose) every 15 minutes in the intervention period

icare 100 tonometer measurement (unit: mmHg)

measured by bioimpedance (units: kg and %)

MR-spectroscopy measurement (unit: cm3 at L3-level, 1 cm thick slice)

visual analogue scale evaluation (no visible numbers/points, just a clear line)

Evaluated by calculating ingested meal at ad libitum meal at test days (unit: grams and calories)

Visual analogue scale (no points/number visible, just a clear line)

After study day 1, participants are randomized (1:1:1) to one of three treatments: 1) Prednisolon and Curcumin, 2) Prednisolon and placebo or 3) Placebo and placebo.

Control Corn Soya Diet will be prepared to a formulation for Corn Soya Blend (SUPER CEREAL) product adopted by the WFP as complementary food for children over than 6 months.

Test Corn Moringa Diet will be prepared to the same formulation as Corn Soya Blend, but the Soya content will be replaced with Moringa and no micronutrient premix will be added.
