NCT ID NCT07476989
First seen Mar 22, 2026 · Last updated Apr 30, 2026 · Updated 4 times
Summary
This study looks at whether eating a breakfast with two types of carbohydrates (glucose and fructose) can increase the amount of glycogen stored in the liver. Twelve healthy male athletes will try three different breakfast options—no breakfast, a high-carb breakfast with no fructose, and a high-carb breakfast with half fructose—to see which best restores liver glycogen after an overnight fast. The goal is to find the best way to fuel the liver before exercise, which could improve performance.
