Summary

This study looked at whether eating high-fiber snack bars could reduce stomach symptoms like nausea, bloating, and gas in adults taking GLP-1 weight-loss medications (such as Ozempic or Mounjaro). Fifty participants tried three different fiber bars and one low-fiber bar over several weeks, reporting how their gut felt. The goal is to find a simple way to improve comfort while staying on these popular drugs.

What this could mean

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

Active substance: High-fiber snack bars (with inulin, psyllium, bran, or resistant starch)
What this could lead to: If it works, this could point toward a simple dietary way to reduce stomach discomfort for people taking popular weight-loss medications.
What could go wrong: This is a small, completed trial with only 50 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. Fiber bars can also cause gas or bloating in some people.
