Alteration of Sweet Taste Perception After Reduction of Sweet Food and Beverage Consumption.

Sponsor: Mahidol University

View on ClinicalTrials.gov

Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to determine whether reducing sugar intake by 50% for 12 weeks can change sweet taste perception in healthy adults and its consequences. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does sweet intensity change after reducing daily sugar intake by 50% for 12 weeks? * How does sweet intensity change after completing dietary modification for 8 weeks? * Does individual daily sugar intake change after completing dietary modification for 8 weeks? Researchers will compare reducing daily sugar intake by 50% for 12 weeks to an unmodified diet to see if sugar reduction can change sweet intensity. Participants will: * Reduce daily sugar intake by 50% or maintain an unmodified diet for 12 weeks. * Visit the clinic three times for anthropometric measurements, sweet perception tests, and to complete questionnaires. * Keep a diet record for a total of 15 days during the research period.
