Hi Lyndsey,

I found two that are related to sugar - perhaps you see the diabetes connection?

and

OR - you can see what else looks interesting in the Project Selection Guide:

Be sure to also look at the tab for "Make it your own". Good luck on your project, and let me know if you have any questions.

Hello LyndseyStephanic,

Here are some more ideas and questions to ask yourself, questions that will lead to a hypothesis and the beginning of your project.

Are you looking for projects linking the 2 together, or do you want to do either project?

Here are some interesting resources you might find interesting and of use to you in your research:

Let us know if you have more questions.
Always remain curious,
