Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at gut bacteria in healthy people who eat a high fiber diet. If you are between 20 and 50, eat at least 5 fruits and vegetables a day, and meet other health criteria, you may be able to help researchers learn how diet affects good gut bacteria.
This study tests whether boosting certain gut bacteria can improve your gut health. If you're a healthy adult who exercises regularly or eats a flexitarian diet, this trial may be for you.
This study tests whether eating more plant-based foods improves your gut bacteria, digestion, and heart health markers. You'll follow a structured diet plan for several weeks while providing blood, stool, and urine samples to measure changes.
This trial tests if eating probiotic bacteria changes the types of bacteria in your gut. It may help researchers understand how probiotics affect overall health.
This study looks at how the tiny organisms in soil can affect the tiny organisms in your gut, by eating vegetables grown in that soil. It's a pilot study with healthy people to understand this process better.
This study tests whether a nutritional supplement can improve the balance of bacteria in your gut. It's for adults who eat a low-fiber diet and are generally healthy.
