Recruiting now · Not applicable
Conditions studied: IBD, Hypertension (HTN), Multiple Sclerosis, Anemia, Colitis Ulcerative
In brief
The primary objective of the present postdoctoral research is to evaluate the acceptability and adherence of two dietary supplements containing microbial phytase, Goodphyte IB Defense and Goodphyte Immunity, in adult individuals with chronic diseases, namely Idiopathic Inflammatory Bowel Diseases (IIBD)-that is, Crohn's disease (CD) or Ulcerative Colitis (UC)-Arterial Hypertension (AH), Anemia (AN), or Multiple Sclerosis (MS). Secondarily, this study will investigate potential changes in iron and zinc absorption following phytase supplementation in these individuals and, consequently, possible changes in their quality of life.
