Prebiotics for Saudi adults with type 2 diabetes
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study tests whether taking a prebiotic (a type of fiber that feeds good gut bacteria) can help manage blood sugar in adults with type 2 diabetes. It may be an option if you are between 45 and 60, have had diabetes for at least 5 years, and have not taken antibiotics recently.

This trial tests how a high-fructose diet affects your gut bacteria and overall metabolic health. It is for people who already know they don't absorb fructose well (fructose malabsorbers) and want to understand how this sugar impacts their body.
This study tests whether a probiotic called Lactobacillus Paracasei LC19 can help control blood sugar in people who have just been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and are not on any diabetes medications. It may be a natural way to manage the condition.
This study tests whether a specific probiotic (Lactobacillus Paracasei LC19) can help control blood sugar in people newly diagnosed with type 2 diabetes who have never taken diabetes medication. Researchers want to understand if this probiotic works differently for different people.
This study tests if a special type of fat (butyrate) can help prevent diabetes in people who are overweight and have early signs of blood sugar problems. You would take a supplement for several weeks to see if it improves how your body handles sugar.
This trial tests whether a personalized nutrition plan based on your gut bacteria (microbiome) can help improve blood sugar control in type 2 diabetes. Researchers will use artificial intelligence to match you with a diet tailored to your unique gut bacteria.
This study tests whether taking a probiotic supplement can help with weight management and gut health in adults with overweight or obesity. You may be able to join if you are between 18 and 50, have a BMI of 25 to 40, and are generally healthy.
