First seen Jan 10, 2026 · Last updated May 14, 2026 · Updated 18 times

Summary

This study looks at whether eating frozen raspberries every day can positively change gut bacteria and improve markers of metabolic syndrome (like blood sugar and cholesterol) in overweight or obese adults. About 59 healthy but overweight men and women will either eat raspberries daily or follow their usual diet for a period. The goal is to understand how raspberries might help prevent obesity-related health problems, not to cure or treat any disease.
