Brief Summary:
This study evaluates whether a Food for Special Medical Purposes (FSMP) can help to preserve appendicular skeletal muscle mass (ASMM) in adults undergoing weight loss treatment with GLP-1 receptor agonists or dual GIP/GLP-1 receptor agonists. Participants will receive the FSMP or a matching placebo for 24 weeks while continuing standard GLP-1-based therapy. ASMM will be measured using Bioelectrical Impedance Vector Analysis (BIVA).
Detailed Description:
This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled investigates whether a Food for Special Medical Purposes (FSMP) can help preserve appendicular skeletal muscle mass (ASMM) in adults undergoing weight loss treatment with GLP-1 receptor agonists or dual GIP/GLP-1 receptor agonists.
Eligible participants are adults with obesity or overweight with comorbidities who are initiating GLP-1-based therapy as part of standard clinical management. Participants are randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive either the FSMP or a matching placebo for 24 weeks, in addition to their ongoing GLP-1 RA or dual GIP/GLP-1 RA therapy. Study visits occur at baseline, 8 weeks, 16 weeks, and 24 weeks.
This trial aims to determine whether targeted nutritional support can mitigate the loss of lean mass commonly observed during pharmacologically assisted weight loss, thereby improving functional outcomes and overall patient well-being.
