How meal types affect blood fats after eating
Part of Hormones & metabolism, Kidney & urinary, Skin, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial tests how different types of food (carbohydrates, fat, protein) affect blood fat levels after meals. It is for people who are healthy, have metabolic syndrome, lipodystrophy, or nephrotic syndrome, and want to understand how their body processes fats.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 or older
- You cannot be on a strict diet like keto or paleo
- You cannot plan to gain or lose weight during the study
- You cannot exercise heavily (over 2 hours of vigorous activity per week)
- You must be in one of the four health groups: healthy, metabolic syndrome, lipodystrophy, or nephrotic syndrome

Other trials that look related to this one.
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 how your blood fat levels respond to changes in the types of nutrients you eat (carbohydrates, fats, and proteins). It may help researchers understand what dietary patterns best affect heart and metabolism-related blood measures.
This study tests whether the type and amount of carbohydrates you eat affects your blood sugar and cholesterol levels. You'll be randomly assigned to eat either special study meals or continue your normal diet, and researchers will measure how your body responds.
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 how differences in insulin resistance may change how the liver makes triglycerides (a type of blood fat). It may help researchers understand why some people have higher triglycerides and how to target them better.
This study tests how “lipid” (fat) changes in the body affect insulin resistance, which is when the body doesn’t respond to insulin as well as it should. Because it’s done in healthy people, it’s mainly looking at basic biology and may help guide future treatments.
