This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This study is testing whether eating a small daily snack of peanuts can help improve how well young adolescents think and learn, help them maintain a healthy weight, and reduce inflammation in their bodies. Researchers believe that peanuts contain nutrients that might protect brain health during the important teenage years when the brain is still developing.
While scientists know that eating nuts seems good for the brain in adults, there is very little research on whether this is true for children and teenagers. Schools want to help prevent weight problems and support learning, so researchers want to see if adding peanuts to the diet could help with both brain health and healthy weight management.

If you join the peanut group, you will receive a month's supply of whole roasted peanuts (25 grams per day) to eat as a daily snack for six months. The control group will continue with their usual diet. The study will measure how you're thinking and learning, check your weight, and look at inflammation markers, likely through tests at the start and end of the six-month period.
