Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The study team is inviting 13 healthy people to complete a study to explore how calcium affects hormones and bones after eating. Participants will be asked to complete two study visits within eight weeks. Before each visit, participants will be asked to not eat or drink (except water) for 9 hours. At each visit, participants will eat the same meal provided by the research team. Along with their meal, they will take a pill - in one session, this will be a calcium supplement, and in the other, a placebo (a pill with no calcium), but they won't know which one they are taking at which session. A phlebotomist will draw blood before the meal and pill, then again several times after eating. Blood draws will take place over three hours. During that time, participants will complete questionnaires about health, diet, and physical activity. Blood will be analyzed to check on various health indicators, like bone health markers and certain hormones, to see how they change after the meal. The difference in these health indicators between the calcium and placebo sessions will help the study team understand the impact of calcium on health after eating. This could help increase knowledge of the impact of calcium on hormones and bone health.
