METAc Trial Summary

This trial looks at how fatty acids affect the body's production of dietary metabolites in people with and without obesity and T2D.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for men and women aged 45-65, with a BMI of 20-35 kg/m², who are generally healthy and have a moderate diet quality. They must understand French and have internet access. It's not for smokers, heavy drinkers, recent antibiotic users, those on omega-3 supplements or with significant weight changes recently.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study looks at how different types of fats in meals (saturated vs. polyunsaturated fatty acids) affect the production of certain metabolites by gut bacteria in people with/without obesity and Type 2 diabetes.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this is a nutritional intervention focusing on meal content rather than medication or invasive procedures, side effects may be minimal but could include digestive discomfort depending on individual reactions to dietary fat changes.
