Conditions
Brief summary
The purpose of the current study is to test if weight change is differentially affected by consumption of foods that are identical in carbohydrate (i.e. sugar) but vary in food form over 1 month.
Detailed description
Dose: Participants are to consume 1 unit per day of the study product. Diet: Participants will receive no instructions for other dietary modifications; i.e., they will not be told to modify what or how much other food they consume.
Interventions
Consume Sugar Sweetened Solid Treatment (product) daily.
Consume Sugar Sweetened Beverage Treatment (product) daily.
Sponsors
Study design
Intervention model description
A randomized parallel arm design trial examining solid sugar vs. SSB treatments will be performed.
