About
The objective of the study is to assess the effect of fortified eggs (compared to a non-egg supplemented diet) and intermittent fasting (IF) (compared to a usual care diet) on biomarker profile at 4 months. This will be a 140-participant, 2x2 factorial, randomized clinical trial comparing fortified eggs vs. a non-egg supplemented diet and IF vs. usual care diet through 4 months. Participants will be randomized 1:1:1:1 to the four treatment groups. Participants will have in-person follow-up visits at 1- and 4- months (inclusive of laboratory assessments) in addition to telephone calls at months 2 and 3. A subset of patients (~24 in each egg randomized strata) will undergo microbiome assessment at baseline and at 4 months.
