Effect of Diets on the Gut Microbiota Composition and Cardiometabolic Wellbeing

October 22, 2021 updated by: Moul Dey, South Dakota State University

The Effect of Pork and Chicken Diets on Gut Microbiota Composition and Metabolites Related to Cardiometabolic Wellbeing

The project will characterize human gut microbiome response to two different diets and the possible physiological and biochemical implications of such response on cardiometabolic risk factors. The study will use controlled-feeding, systems-biology, metagenomic, and metabolomic approaches to examine American dietary patterns.
