How meal fats and carbs affect blood fats
Part of Hormones & metabolism, Kidney & urinary, Skin, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at how different types of meals (with different amounts of fats, carbs, and protein) affect the levels of fats in your blood after eating. It may help researchers understand how to better manage conditions like metabolic syndrome, lipodystrophy, or nephrotic syndrome.

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 how different types and amounts of carbohydrates in the food you eat affect your blood sugar and cholesterol. If you have metabolic syndrome or are at high risk, the results could guide better dietary advice for managing your health, and your participation will help researchers learn more.
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 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 fat is processed in the body for people with different health conditions, including obesity and type 2 diabetes. It aims to find new ways to improve treatment by understanding these differences.
