Summary
This study looks at how ultra processed foods (like packaged snacks and sugary drinks) affect the way your body absorbs calories. Researchers will compare a diet where 80% of calories come from ultra processed foods to one where only 20% do. Twenty adults with a BMI between 30 and 40 who are otherwise healthy will participate. The main goal is to measure calories left in stool to see how much energy the body actually keeps.
