NCT ID NCT07381933
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looks at how eating cloudberries and lingonberries affects tiny particles called extracellular vesicles, which cells use to communicate. Sixty healthy adults will eat these berries daily for a week. Researchers will check changes in gut bacteria, immune cells, and blood signals to see if berries improve cell messaging.
