Study Summary

The goal of this study is to learn whether eating a small serving of almonds before meals can improve blood sugar control in adults who have early signs of problems with blood sugar regulation. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Does eating almonds before a meal reduce the rise in blood sugar after eating? 2. Do some people consistently benefit more than others from eating almonds before meals?

Primary Outcome

The primary endpoint will be the difference in plasma glucose incremental area under the curve (iAUC) assessed via intravenous blood sampling over three hours following a standardized mixed meal tolerance test (MMTT) with premeal ingestion of 18 g of almonds 30 minutes prior (MMTT+) compared to without (MMTT-). This effect will be averaged across the replicated acute challenge visits in the repeated crossover design.
