Can your genes tell you what to eat? new study investigates personalized nutrition for weight management
NCT ID NCT07450066
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at 150 adults with normal weight, overweight, or obesity to see if a nutrition plan based on both genes and body measurements works better than one based only on body measurements. Participants followed a six-month diet program, and researchers tracked changes in weight, body fat, and blood markers. The goal was to find better ways to personalize diet advice for metabolic health.
