NCT ID NCT05292352

First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tested whether a low-sugar diet could prevent non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in Hispanic children ages 6 to 9 who were at higher risk. Over two years, researchers compared kids who followed the diet with those who ate normally. The goal was to see if cutting sugar could stop fat from building up in the liver. The study was stopped early, so results are limited.
