Sponsor: Hospices Civils de Lyon
Conditions: Obesity in Adolescents
Interventions: The primary intervention in this study is dietary counseling and education on adopting a low glycaemic index diet with sample menus provided, continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) sensors
Countries: France
Obesity affects 18% of French adults and increasingly impacts adolescents. Dietary management is challenging, particularly with eating disorders like hyperphagia. The study hypothesizes that glycaemic variability contributes to eating disorders, as blood glucose fluctuations and reactive hypoglycaemia may exacerbate compulsive eating. Currently, no data exists on the relationship between glycaemic profile and satiety in obese adolescents. This exploratory study will establish foundation for larger research evaluating glucose sensors as therapeutic education tools in obesity management, helping patients understand diet-satiety relationships.
