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.
