This Phase 2 study tests whether taking taurine affects blood sugar control, cholesterol/fats, and inflammation in people with type 2 diabetes. It may help by improving these lab markers, which are linked to long-term health risks.
This study looks at how eating specific functional foods affects blood sugar after meals and changes in gut bacteria. It may help people understand ways to support healthy blood sugar and digestion, but it’s not for people with diabetes.
This study looks at how your body processes fat after eating and measures certain blood markers to understand who might develop diabetes or complications. You'll eat a high-fat meal and have blood drawn to help doctors identify early warning signs.
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.
This study compares people with normal weight to people with obesity who are otherwise healthy to understand how body weight affects gut bacteria, immune function, and blood vessel health. Results may help explain why some people with obesity stay healthier than others.
