Sponsor's own description

To explore the changes in the composition and diversity of intestinal microbiota during 3-weeks of modified MAC diet and conventional diet in stage I or low-risk stage II colorectal cancer (CRC) patients after surgery. Additionally, the investigator analyze the association of gut microbiota and stool formation pattern or quality of life according to dietary pattern. Therefore, the investigator identify the beneficial or harmful microbiota composition and diversity adapting modified MAC diet that related to cancer recurrence, which provide supporting evidence for future prospective trial.
