NCT ID NCT06966570
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This completed pilot study looked at how two different beverages—one with mixed nutrients and one with a single nutrient—affect appetite hormones and hunger ratings in 12 healthy adults aged 20 to 50. Participants drank each beverage on separate days, and researchers measured hormone levels and appetite scores. The goal was to understand the body's short-term response to different drink compositions.
