NCT05804929 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 104

Last updated 2026-01-21

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The goal of this observational study is to build on our previous work to further characterise the phenotype of superlean individuals (BMI \< 18.5) when compared to normal BMI people (BMI 21.5 to 25). This will include characterising the body composition, food intake behaviour, circulating hormone levels, genetics and characteristics of the gut microbiota. The investigators expect to recruit up to 200 healthy superlean and control volunteers respectively,
