How soil microbes affect gut health through vegetables
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 eating a dried vegetable can improve bowel habits and change gut bacteria. It may help people who feel their bowel function is not working well and have hard or infrequent stools.
This study looks at how eating fresh garden foods affects the bacteria living in your gut (your microbiome). If you qualify, you may be able to take part in a 3-month study this fall.
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 trial looks at how plant-based drinks affect the bacteria in your gut. You would drink a plant-based beverage daily and provide stool samples to see how your gut microbiome changes.
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.
