NCT ID NCT03091725

Summary

This study aims to understand how the body processes different types of meals in people with obesity, and how that changes after significant weight loss. Researchers will compare the metabolic effects of a low-carbohydrate meal and a standard meal. They will study 30 adults before and after they lose weight either through a strict low-calorie diet or through gastric bypass surgery.
