NCT ID NCT06329544
First seen Nov 18, 2025 · Last updated Jun 11, 2026 · Updated 22 times
Summary
This study looks at how eating a lot of fructose (a type of sugar) changes the bacteria in your gut and increases risks for fatty liver, type 2 diabetes, and obesity. Thirty adults who have trouble digesting fructose will eat either a high-fructose or high-glucose diet for 12 days, then switch after a break. Researchers will measure liver fat, insulin resistance, and gut bacteria to understand the link between sugar and metabolic disease.
