Summary
This trial will test if healthy eating can slow down the aging process in young people without obesity. #healthyeating
Who is the study for?
The DiAL Health Research Study is for healthy individuals aged 25-45 with a BMI between 22 and below 30, who have maintained a stable weight recently, wake up early, and don't use chronic medications. Excluded are those with serious health conditions, pregnant or lactating women, heavy smokers or drinkers, extreme athletes, and people with unconventional eating habits.
What is being tested?
This study tests the effectiveness of different dietary interventions aimed at slowing aging processes in young adults without obesity. It's a pilot trial with five groups to see which diet might help improve treatment compliance and support weight loss while promoting healthier aging.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this is a dietary intervention trial focused on healthy individuals without obesity to slow aging mechanisms rather than testing drugs or medical procedures, side effects may be minimal but could include changes in energy levels or digestive discomfort depending on the specific diets tested.
