About

The purpose of this study is to observe the impact of Pivit on body weight in overweight individuals. Additionally, the study aims to observe the impact of the product on appetite, hunger, cravings, and general well-being via activities and technologies that can successfully and effectively be completed in a home setting. A consumer-driven, decentralized observational clinical research study is therefore well-suited for examining the impact of this product in this population.

The study team will examine the outcomes in a broad age-range of adults who have chosen to try this product. The study will incorporate participant reported outcome questionnaires and surveys and at-home body weight measurement using a personal scale. There is no "doctor-patient" relationship as part of this research since the participant as a consumer is making the informed choice to take the product and take part in the observational process with self-reported measures and at-home body weight measurement. Findings from this study will contribute knowledge toward the tolerability and formulation of the plant-derived consumer product and the design of future studies.

Full description

Pivit is a proprietary and patented formulation of food molecules, designed to act on receptors in the gut to cause a natural secretion of GLP-1 and GIP hormones. GLP-1 and GIP are hormones that naturally delay stomach emptying to reduce appetite and trigger the pancreas to secrete insulin which regulates blood sugar. Pivit has been shown to naturally increase GLP-1 and GIP in human cellular studies and in initial consumer trials, which in turn increase feelings of satiety and lessen hunger pangs, lower blood sugar and support healthy insulin sensitivity. Pivit may also lessen interest in alcohol and reduce 'food noise,' thoughts about food throughout the day and curtail the urge to snack.
