This study is looking at how replacing refined carbohydrates (like added sugars) with avocado affects inflammation in adults who are overweight or obese. You might be able to join if you are between 21 and 74 years old, have a BMI (Body Mass Index) between 25 and 39.9, and have elevated hs-CRP (a marker of inflammation) and central adiposity (extra fat around your waist). The researchers want to see if eating avocado instead of refined carbs can improve your inflammation markers. The study is currently unclear on its recruitment status.

Study design

This interventional study plans to enroll 38 participants. It compares two 4-week diet conditions: one with avocado and one with control foods.

What's involved

You would complete two 4-week diet periods, separated by a 2-week break. This involves a total of 7 clinic visits over the study duration.

Compensation

Not stated in the trial record.

Follow-up

Inflammatory biomarkers will be measured at the end of each 28-day diet condition, comparing them to your baseline measurements.
