Heart Health Studies

Heart Health Studies We are looking for 18- to 75-year-old volunteers who are overweight or obese, and drink full-sugar soda pop regularly.

Eligible participants must be willing to drink either soy milk, cow’s milk, or full-sugar soda pop for the 6-month duration of the study and attend eight visits at St. Michael’s Hospital, a site of Unity Health Toronto. The first visit will be a screening visit to confirm you are eligible for the study. Participants will have body measurements taken, will be asked to complete a few questionnaires, and to sample the study beverages. Two of the visits will involve medical imaging (a MRI scan), multiple blood samples, questionnaires, body measurements, and fecal and urine samples. The midway visit will involve body measurements, questionnaires, and a blood and urine sample. All remaining visits will only involve body measurements and questionnaires. Compensation and all study beverages will be provided to participants. To see if you are eligible or if you would like more information, please call the STEM study office at 416-867-7460 ext. 48216 or email STEMTrial@unityhealth.to

Researchers at St. Michael's Hospital are investigating the effects of swapping sodas with cow's milk or soy milk. They also seek to study the effects of continuing to drink sodas on liver fat and key cardiometabolic mediators. This study may help inform dietary guidelines and public policy on the best possible replacement for sodas.
This study seeks 18- to 75-year-old participants who are overweight, and drink at least 1 sugary drink a day. Participants will be randomly assigned to drink 1 of the 3 beverages and will be required to attend 8 study visits, including a screening visit. All visits will take place at the research site over 6 months.

The STEM trial is one of the largest and longest clinical trials of a plant-based intervention to replace animal foods. The results from this trial will provide the best opportunity to increase the population intake of plant foods at the expense of animal foods, benefitting animal welfare as well as personal, public, and planetary health! More funding is essential for trial completion. Consider supporting this important research study!
