Checking gut bacteria changes after taking a prebiotic capsule
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This study tests a capsule that samples the bacteria in your gut (microbiome) before and after taking a prebiotic supplement. It aims to see if the supplement changes the balance of gut bacteria in healthy people.
