NCT05140070

Brief Summary

The main goal of the project is to test fruit and vegetable mousse, with the addition of a fiber preparation made of potato starch with prebiotic properties, on selected clinical, metabolic and immunological parameters in overweight and obese children. The study will be performed in a group of 80 to 100 children aged 6 to 10 years (pre-pubertal age), using a double-blind procedure. Children will be randomly assigned into two groups, i.e. the intervention group (they will receive a vegetable and fruit mousse with the addition of potato starch fiber preparation with prebiotic properties) and the control group (they will receive an identical preparation in their diet, but without the addition of potato starch fiber preparation).
