Prevent and Reverse Obesity in Children, Adolescents and Young Adults

Sponsor: piero portincasa

View on ClinicalTrials.gov

Summary

Obesity and overweight are non-communicable diseases with an increasing incidence in children, adolescents, and adults. International efforts to reverse the current epidemiological trend of rising overweight, obesity, and related diseases have so far been insufficient to achieve this goal. Therefore, a change in strategy-both at the individual and public health levels-is urgently needed. Searching the litterature, there are currently no studies employing a comprehensive, personalized, and multi-level strategy to induce stable changes in dietary and lifestyle habits, while also conducting careful follow-up of outcomes and exploring the pathogenic mechanisms affecting metabolic pathways, pro-inflammatory and systemic conditions, and intestinal permeability in overweight and obese patients. Evidence shows the beneficial effects of specific dietary patterns (e.g., the Mediterranean Diet) and a healthy lifestyle in reducing body/organ fat accumulation. However, a comprehensive evaluation of their effects-particularly following personalized strategies and careful follow-up-on the pathogenic mechanisms influencing cardiovascular and metabolic risk, pro-inflammatory status, and intestinal permeability in the medium-to-long term is still lacking.
