NCT ID NCT07572513

First seen May 14, 2026 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study looks at how slowly digestible carbohydrates (like raw corn starch) affect a hormone called GLP-1, which helps control appetite. Healthy adults aged 18-45 will drink different amounts of starch and have their blood tested over several hours. The goal is to find the best dose to increase fullness and reduce hunger, which could lead to better weight loss foods.
