Summary

The lay summary the sponsor registered on ClinicalTrials.gov.

The purpose of this research study is to determine whether increased intake of dietary fiber during a 12-week, low-calorie weight loss intervention affects abdominal fat change and improves cardiovascular risk factors in African-American women more than a standard weight loss intervention. The investigators are testing two main hypothesis: Hypothesis 1: Women in the high dietary fiber intervention group will lose significantly more abdominal fat around their organs than women in the standard fiber group. Hypothesis 2: Women in the high dietary fiber intervention group will have lower blood pressure, fasting glucose, fasting lipids and inflammatory factors at 3-months compared to women in the control group.
