First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether taking a daily probiotic (Lab4P) for 12 weeks can improve memory, thinking speed, and blood sugar control in overweight adults aged 18-40 with prediabetes (mildly high blood sugar). Seventy participants will be randomly assigned to receive either the probiotic or a placebo. The goal is to see if improving gut health can help both the brain and metabolism.
