Clinical Trial: Ultra-Processing and Nutritional Quality: Glycemic Response, Appetite, Dietary Energy Intake, and Eating Rate

U.S., Sept. 10 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07808892) titled 'Ultra-Processing and Nutritional Quality: Glycemic Response, Appetite, Dietary Energy Intake, and Eating Rate' on Aug. 30.

Brief Summary: The UPGRADE Study will examine how food-processing level and nutritional quality affect energy intake, eating rate, satiety, and glycemic response. In a randomized-order crossover design, each participant will consume three laboratory test meals: low processing/high nutritional quality, high processing/high nutritional quality, and high processing/low nutritional quality. Food intake and eating rate will be measured using a Universal Eating Monitor, alongside satiety, glycemic response, and energ...
