NCT ID NCT07160985

First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This completed trial tested whether an AI-powered system called X Life could help adults with prediabetes improve their blood sugar control. Over 28 days, 131 participants either used the AI system for real-time diet and exercise recommendations or received standard lifestyle advice. The study measured changes in glucose tolerance to see if the AI approach was more effective.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only โ€” not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
AI-based lifestyle management system (X Life)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a practical, non-drug tool to help people with prediabetes manage their blood sugar and potentially delay or prevent type 2 diabetes.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial (131 people) testing a short-term intervention (28 days). The results may not be generalizable, and the AI system may not lead to lasting improvements or be better than standard lifestyle advice.
