Observational study of diet and blood sugar changes
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must have type 2 diabetes that was diagnosed more than one month ago, or you must not have diabetes (and have normal blood sugar levels).
- For people with diabetes: Your A1C (a test that shows average blood sugar over 3 months) must be between 6.5% and 10.5%.
- For people with diabetes: You must be on a stable treatment, which can be lifestyle changes, certain diabetes pills (like metformin), or a daily insulin shot, and the dose should stay the same during the study.
- For people without diabetes: Your A1C must be below 5.7% and your fasting blood sugar must be between 3.9 and 5.6 mmol/L.
- You cannot have certain health problems, like serious heart disease, liver or kidney failure, or a history of stomach surgeries.
- You must be willing to wear a skin sensor for continuous glucose monitoring and a small device to track your activity.

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 measures “circulating biomarkers” (blood-based signals) in people with type 1 or type 2 diabetes, and in some people without diabetes who test positive for certain diabetes antibodies. The goal is to understand what these blood signals can tell us about diabetes development and progression.
This study tests a wearable device that may measure blood sugar without needles. It could help people manage their diet and health more easily.
This study tracks how blood sugar levels change in people with prediabetes (higher-than-normal blood sugar but not yet diabetes). Researchers will use a small sensor to monitor your blood sugar and help understand what affects it, which could help prevent or delay type 2 diabetes.
This study tests a new wearable sensor to see if it can help people with type 1 diabetes better track their blood sugar levels. It might lead to easier and more accurate glucose monitoring.
This study tests a new glucose sensor placed inside a blood vessel to see how well it measures blood sugar. If you have diabetes and use intensive insulin therapy, this could be a way to help improve monitoring.
