NCT ID NCT07174323
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether taking Nextida-GC (a collagen peptide) or whey protein before breakfast can lower blood sugar spikes after eating. Thirty-two healthy adults, some with prediabetes, drank the supplement 30 minutes before, 10 minutes before, or with a standard breakfast. Researchers measured blood sugar and insulin levels over three hours to find the best timing.
