Test supplements to change how sugars attach to blood proteins
This early (Phase 1) study tests how adding specific dietary supplements affects “protein glycosylation,” which means how sugar molecules attach to proteins in your blood. It’s meant to see how the supplements change these blood measurements and whether the approach is tolerable in generally healthy adults.

This study looks at how eating specific functional foods affects blood sugar after meals and changes in gut bacteria. It may help people understand ways to support healthy blood sugar and digestion, but it’s not for people with diabetes.
This trial tests whether a supplement called GLYLO can reduce markers of aging related to sugar damage in postmenopausal women. It may help if you are between 45 and 65, have some extra belly fat or higher blood sugar, and are not taking certain medications.
This study tests whether a daily dietary supplement can help improve blood sugar control in people who are overweight or have obesity. If you qualify, you may receive the supplement or a placebo to see if it helps your body manage sugar better.
This study tests an experimental product to see how well it helps control blood sugar after meals in adults who are overweight or have slightly high blood sugar. It may offer a new way to manage blood sugar without medication.
This study looks at how eating more or different types of proteins (animal vs plant) may change your blood sugar handling. It mainly targets adults who eat relatively little protein and have no diabetes.
This study tests a food supplement to see if it helps keep blood sugar levels healthier in people with slightly high blood sugar (pre-diabetes). If you qualify, you would take the supplement and have your blood sugar checked over time.
