The National Institutes of Health is conducting a large-scale diet study called Nutrition for Precision Health, aiming to understand how different individuals metabolize and respond to various diets. The study, part of the All of Us research program, seeks to develop machine-learning algorithms that can offer personalized diet plans to improve health.

Participants will receive free analyses of their metabolic health and can earn up to $6,200 for their involvement.
