[QUOTE="DCUKMod, post: 2139135, member: 345386"] Shiba Park - I believe the reality is some are more interested and engaged in their health and the granular detail than others. When research takes place, the researchers are rarely looking for those who are already turning every last stone to improve their health. They're more usually looking for those with specific issues, complications, or utilising a particular medication, plus other criteria. As an example, I have been involved in various way at our local NIHR, biometric research centre and Diabates Cenre of Excellence for probably about 4 years now. To date, there has not been one research project I have qualified for, as a participant. There may be a piece of work kicking off, looking at intermittent fasting, where they are looking for participants to commit to various forms of IF, but with no objectives of losing weight. They will be looking at various factors from Lire monitoring, activity and sleep monitoring, along with measuring (by urine) cortisol and melatonin, in line with the circadian rhythm. I might qualify for that. For that piece, the Libre data will be blind, to prevent conscious or subconscious modifications to nutrtion, exercise, sleep behaviour etc. [/QUOTE]
