NCT ID NCT06724705
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested a smart underwear device to see if it can detect lactose intolerance by measuring gas events after drinking lactose. 37 adults (some lactose tolerant, some intolerant) wore the device and consumed both lactose and a placebo (sucrose) on separate days. The goal was to see if the device's readings matched their reported symptoms, offering a new way to diagnose lactose intolerance.
