We are looking for people with knee osteoarthritis to participate in a study to examine whether a diet intervention can reduce pain and improve quality of life. The commitment to this study will last approximately 7 weeks and include the following:
- Five (5) visits to UAB where you will fill out questionnaires, complete a DEXA scan, blood draw or Quantitative Sensory testing. These visits will last anywhere from 1-3 hrs.
- Six (6) weeks on a randomized diet where we will provide three (3) meals and two to three (2-3) snacks per day.
Participants must:
- Be currently suffering from pain related to knee osteoarthritis
- Be free from other serious health conditions (diabetes, cardiovascular disease, eating disorders, metabolic disease)
Participants will receive up to $250 for completing the study and meals will be provided. Please contact DIRECT at
