Diet and gut microbiome effects on blood sugar in healthy adults
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study tests how different protein-rich foods affect your blood sugar throughout the day. If you are an adult with overweight, you may be asked to track meals using a smartphone app.
This study looks at how different foods affect blood sugar levels after eating. It is for people with or without type 2 diabetes who are on a stable treatment plan.
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 looks at how people with different body weights digest and process sugar after a meal. Participants will eat a special breakfast and have blood and possibly stool tests to track a safe, low-dose radioactive label in the sugar. The goal is to understand why body weight affects sugar metabolism.
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 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.
