How food order affects blood sugar and energy use at rest
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study looks at whether the order in which you eat certain foods (edamame, butter, and rice) can change your blood sugar levels and how your body uses energy while resting. It may help people understand simple meal patterns for better health.

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 looks at how young, healthy adults break down food after eating. It uses blood tests and a metabolic challenge to measure energy use and chemical changes.
This study tests how specific foods impact your body's ability to manage blood sugar and fat levels. You'll eat meals provided by the research team for about 12 weeks to help researchers understand which foods work best for people with high triglycerides (a type of blood fat) and insulin resistance (difficulty managing blood sugar).
This study looks at whether the order in which you eat foods during a meal can help control your blood sugar levels. It might help you manage your gestational diabetes better through diet alone.
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 tests whether eating carbohydrates that digest slowly can naturally boost a hormone called GLP-1, which helps control blood sugar and appetite. Researchers want to understand if this might help people manage their weight and metabolism.
