Summary
This trial is looking at how different types of meals affect blood glucose levels in healthy people. The researchers want to determine if fixed meals, which are the same size for everyone, or adjusted meals, based
Who is the study for?
This trial is for healthy adults over 18 years old. It's designed to see how different calorie amounts in meals affect blood sugar levels. Participants will need to visit the clinic several times and undergo various tests, including drinking a sugary solution and having their metabolic rate measured.
What is being tested?
Researchers are testing two types of mixed meal tolerance tests (MMTTs): one with a fixed caloric dose for everyone, and another adjusted based on individual body size. The goal is to determine which method provides more accurate results for future studies.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this study involves healthy individuals consuming standard or adjusted meals, side effects are minimal but may include discomfort from blood draws or possible reactions to the liquid meal consumed during the MMTT.
