Measure how much sugar you eat using blood and hair samples
This Phase 1 study tests whether “biomarkers” in your blood and hair can accurately measure how much sugar you consume. It may help researchers find better ways to track dietary sugar intake in future nutrition and health studies.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are between 18 and 65 years old

This study looks at how your diet affects blood sugar spikes after meals. You will wear a small sensor that tracks your glucose for a short time, and you will keep a record of what you eat so the research team can see which foods may lead to higher or lower blood sugar.
This study looks at how non-nutritive sweeteners (like the ones in diet sodas) affect your health. You'll follow a special diet for a few weeks, and researchers will check things like blood sugar and metabolism.
This study looks at how your gut bacteria and the foods you eat affect your blood sugar after meals. You'll wear a small sensor to track your blood sugar for 10 days and provide stool samples.
This study tests three different taste-based diets to see which one best helps people cut down on free sugars (the sugars added to foods and drinks). It is for adults who eat a lot of sugar and live in the South of England.
This study measures how your blood sugar changes after eating meals high in carbohydrates. You’ll likely use study apps and eat specific study foods, and results may help researchers understand what drives different blood-sugar responses.
This research study measures changes in substances in your blood using small, non-invasive devices. Researchers want to understand how your body's metabolism works in healthy people.
