Food as medicine: diet trial targets debilitating sickle cell pain
NCT ID NCT06886477
Summary
This study is exploring whether following a Mediterranean diet for four weeks can help reduce the chronic pain experienced by adults with sickle cell disease. Researchers are comparing pain levels while participants eat the Mediterranean diet to their pain levels while eating their usual diet. The goal is to see if this specific way of eating could become a helpful, non-drug approach for managing daily pain.
