Grape Drink Trial for Diabetes and Fatty Liver
Part of Digestive system, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study tests a drink made from grape pomace (a natural byproduct) that is rich in polyphenols—compounds that may help the liver and heart. Participants have type 2 diabetes and mild fatty liver, and researchers want to see if the drink improves liver health, blood sugar, and gut bacteria over several months.

This trial tests a specific medical nutrition therapy diet to see if it can reduce liver fat and improve blood sugar control in people with type 2 diabetes and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. It may help you manage both conditions with a dietary approach.
This study looks at how the liver uses energy (mitochondria) in people with type 2 diabetes and fatty liver disease. By understanding this, researchers may find better ways to treat liver problems.
This trial tests a special drink that may help improve blood sugar levels and gut health in people with prediabetes. It could offer a simple way to manage blood sugar and potentially prevent diabetes.
This trial tests whether taking a daily drink containing short-chain fatty acids can improve risk factors for metabolic syndrome, like belly fat, high blood sugar, or high blood pressure. It might help if you are at risk but not yet taking medications for these conditions.
This trial tests whether eating a plant-based diet can improve liver health and reduce exposure to harmful chemicals in people with fatty liver disease. If you qualify, you may be asked to follow a plant-based diet and have your liver health monitored over time.
This study tests a medicine commonly used for diabetes to see if it can help people with fatty liver disease. The medicine may reduce fat in the liver and improve liver health.
