Study Summary

This study will test whether inulin, a type of dietary fiber, can reduce inflammation in older adults with knee osteoarthritis. Inflammation in the body may contribute to both joint pain and the progression of osteoarthritis. Inulin is a prebiotic fiber that may improve gut health and reduce lipopolysaccharide (LPS), a marker of bacterial products in the blood that is linked to inflammation. In this trial, participants with knee osteoarthritis will be randomly assigned to receive either inulin or a placebo (maltodextrin) for 8 weeks. The study will measure changes in blood LPS levels, knee pain, and other markers of inflammation. The goal is to determine whether inulin supplementation can improve pain and reduce inflammation in people with knee osteoarthritis.

Primary Outcome

Serum LPS levels will be measured at baseline and at 8 weeks to evaluate the effect of inulin supplementation compared to placebo.

Interventions

  • DRUG Maltodextrin (Placebo)
  • DRUG inulin
