Do you want to participate in the CoDiet-CBG project on diet and health?
The CIC bioGUNE research centre and Azti have launched the internationalCoDiet project, a bid to test innovative diet monitoring technologies to improve our knowledge of the relationship between the food we eat and common diseases such as heart disease, diabetes, obesity and cancer.
CIC BIOGUNE AND AZTI ARE LOOKING FOR PEOPLE TO PARTICIPATE IN A RESEARCH PROJECT (CoDiet-CBG) ON DIET AND HEALTH.
Objective
To develop innovative diet tracking technologies to better understand the relationship between the food we eat and common diseases such as heart disease, diabetes, obesity and cancer.
What criteria must you meet to participate?
Be over 18 years of age
Be overweight or obese BMI ≥25. You can calculate your BMI here: https://www.seen.es/portal/calculadoras/calculadora-imc
Have at least 2 of the following disorders:
High triglycerides: ≥ 100 mg/dL (1.7 mmol/L).
Low HDL cholesterol < 40 mg/dL (1.03 mmol/L) in men or < 50 mg/dL (1.29 mmol/L) in women.
High blood pressure: systolic ≥ 130 or diastolic ≥ 85.
High glucose: ≥ 90 mg/dL (5.0 mmol/L).
These values will be verified by a blood test prior to participation in the study for each candidate.
What should you do if you participate?
Come to the IMQ centre in Zamudio 3 times during 8 weeks on an empty stomach to take blood and donate a urine sample (first one in the morning) and another stool sample that we will use to evaluate your nutritional and health status.
After the blood draw, you will go to the CIC bioGUNE centre on the same day to take measurements of your body composition, stress level and arterial health using non-invasive sensors.
Use state-of-the-art devices for 3 weeks to quantify and assess your food intake.
Complete questionnaires before and during the study about your physical activity habits and personal medical history.
It is an observational study so you do not need to change your diet or physical activity habits.
How long does the study last?
8 weeks (plus a first test before the start of the study to check if you are eligible to participate in the project).
