What this study is about

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if daily supplementation with SPM Active® can increase omega 3 polyunsaturated fatty acid derivatives and improve well-being in adults with obesity. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does 2 g/day of SPM Active® for 12 weeks increase plasma levels of 14-hydroxydocosahexaenoic (HDHA), 17-HDHA, and 18-hydroxy eicosapentaenoic acid (HEPE)? Does 2 g/day of SPM Active® for 12 weeks improve self-reported burnout, life satisfaction, and sleep quality? Participants will: Take two SPM Active® soft-gel capsules daily for 12 weeks (±2-4 days). Provide 12-hour fasting blood samples before and after the intervention. Complete validated surveys on burnout, life satisfaction, and sleep quality at baseline and study end.

A promising-looking record is not the same as confirmed eligibility. The study team must review the full criteria and current recruitment status.

Treatments and study arms

SPM Active®

Dietary Supplement

Participants will take two SPM Active® soft-gel capsules orally each day (total 2 g/day of specialized pro-resolving mediators) for 12 weeks (± 2-4 days). Capsules are provided by Metagenics and contain monohydroxylated n-3 PUFA derivatives (14-HDHA, 17-HDHA, 18-HEPE).

Primary outcomes

Change in Plasma Levels of Monohydroxylated n-3 PUFA Derivatives (14-HDHA, 17-HDHA, 18-HEPE)Baseline (Day 0) and End of Treatment (Week 12 ± 2-4 days)

Mean change from baseline in fasting plasma concentrations of 14-HDHA, 17-HDHA, and 18-HEPE, as quantified by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry.
