Effects of sourdough fermentation on blood sugar in prediabetic adults

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This trial investigates how different fermentation durations of sourdough bread affect postprandial blood glucose levels in adults with prediabetes. Participants will consume sourdough bread with varying fermentation times after fasting, allowing researchers to measure the impact on their blood sugar response. The study aims to determine if longer fermentation times lead to improved glycemic control compared to traditional yeast bread. By focusing on naturally fermented sourdough, the trial seeks to explore a dietary intervention that could enhance metabolic health in prediabetic individuals.
