Gauging Outcomes of Total Milk Ingestion on Lipid and gControl

Description

The study is designed as an N of 1 randomized trial, where each participant will be randomized to consume high-fat versus non-fat dairy milk then crossover to the alternate condition over two consecutive two-month periods. After two and four months, participants will have lab tests performed, including hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) and fasting lipids. Throughout the study, participants will be instructed to continuously wear a wrist-worn fitness tracker, use a Bluetooth-enabled scale and blood pressure monitor to trend weight and blood pressure weekly, and utilize the Eureka mobile application for self-monitoring of dairy milk consumption, diet, lifestyle, and physical activity. Aside from study-related dairy milk instructions, all other aspects of diet will remain constant throughout study participation. The study seeks to elucidate the relationship between dairy milk consumption and overall health. A total of 100 participants will be enrolled for participation in this clinical trial.
