Could a common food preservative be making us eat more?
NCT ID NCT07437430
Summary
This small pilot study aims to see if a common food preservative (potassium sorbate) influences how much food people eat in a 24-hour period. Researchers will recruit 20 adults with obesity to test if it's feasible to measure food intake after a single dose of the additive versus a placebo. The main goal is to gather initial data and test the study methods, not to prove a direct link to weight gain.
