Clinical Trial: Effects of Breakfast Glycaemic Index on Cognition in Earlier or Later Chronotypes.

U.S., April 9 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT06916039) titled 'Effects of Breakfast Glycaemic Index on Cognition in Earlier or Later Chronotypes.' on March 31.

Brief Summary: High glycaemic index (GI) breakfasts resulting in sharp rises in blood glucose may adversely affect memory and attention, particularly in the late postprandial phase (i.e., 120-180 minutes after breakfast). Previous research indicates that breakfast GI influences cognition in young adults, but many studies were too short to capture late postprandial effects. However, young adults may be particularly responsive to these adverse effects on cognition since they are prone to experience circadian misalignment in the morning due...
