First seen May 10, 2026 · Last updated May 19, 2026 · Updated 3 times

Summary

This study looks at how three common sugars—sucrose, glucose, and fructose—affect the body in 20 healthy, normal-weight adults. Researchers measure changes in gut hormones, blood sugar, blood clotting, and digestion after each sugar is taken. The goal is to understand the short-term metabolic effects, not to treat any disease.
