NCT ID NCT07279454

First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tests whether a modified high-fiber version of the UK's EatWell diet can improve health markers linked to early-onset colorectal cancer. Two hundred adults in the UK will follow either the standard EatWell diet (30g fiber/day) or a modified version (40g fiber/day) for 12 weeks. Researchers will measure changes in stool, blood, urine, and saliva to see if extra fiber makes a difference.

What this could mean

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

Active substance

Modified EatWell diet (high-fiber, 40g/day)

What this could lead to

If it works, this could point toward a dietary approach to lower the risk of early-onset bowel cancer.

What could go wrong

This is a small, early-stage trial looking at biological markers, not cancer itself. The diet may be hard to follow long-term, and results may not translate to actual cancer prevention.
