Sponsor's own description
People respond differently to various diets-some may see significant benefits, while others may not. This project aims to personalize dietary recommendations by analyzing the gut microbiome to predict who will benefit most from the Mediterranean diet based on their unique biology, including their microbiome. The study focuses on answering these key questions: 1. Are there specific microbes that influence who is most likely to benefit from the Mediterranean diet? 2. What changes occur in the gut microbiome when healthy individuals follow a Mediterranean diet? To explore these questions, researchers will compare the effects of a Mediterranean diet to a Western-style diet. Participants will receive all their meals and snacks for the study to ensure accurate comparisons of how these diets impact the gut microbiome.
