Dr CK Yao is a Senior Research Fellow & Dietitian at Monash University from the Monash FODMAP research team which is well known for their world class dietary feeding studies. CK and her team are working on a feeding trial to look at the impact of a new dietary treatment for patients with ulcerative colitis (UC).
Progress and Outcomes:
Meal Development and Delivery: We Feed You is supplying meals to participants covering two diets with the distribution model enabling the study group to reach a wide range of participants.
Impact:
Comprehensive analysis of the data will be completed after the feeding study has finished.
Expected Publication Impact:
Results from this trial are hoping to provide evidence to support dietary management as an adjunct to conventional therapies for UC, influencing guidelines and patient recommendations.
Next Steps:
Senior Research Fellow Dr CK Yao said "Our study is making great progress and continuing in 2025 with We Feed You continuing to supply meals to participants. We have already received positive feedback regarding the meals supplied on the diet. Once the study is complete we look forward to analysing the results."
We Feed You remains dedicated to supplying research projects with meal solutions that cater to a wide range of dietary needs. This combined with their extensive distribution reach enables them to reach a wide range of demographics and health profiles. By developing meals for special dietary needs, We Feed You reinforces the concept that tailored nutrition can serve as a powerful tool in helping research teams uncover effective solutions to common health challenges. Dr CK Yao says, "We Feed You's expertise makes it easier for my team to focus on the research rather than meal preparation and logistics. It also leads to far greater compliance with participants."
