Glucose monitors may guide teens away from diabetes
NCT ID NCT07714759
First seen Jul 20, 2026 · Last updated Jul 21, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether giving teens with obesity and prediabetes a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) — along with nutritional counseling — helps them eat better and keep blood sugar in check. For three months, participants see their glucose levels in real time and learn how different foods affect them. The goal is to see if this awareness leads to healthier eating habits and improved metabolic health.
