Summary

This trial is testing whether the food we eat affects the bacteria in our gut.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for English-speaking individuals who can consent to participate, use an electronic food diary, and eat meals provided by the study. They must have a US address. It's not for those on parenteral nutrition or with allergies to shellfish, insects, carmine, dragon fruit (pitaya), or cacti; anyone treated for cancer or given antibiotics in the last month; or those who've had certain x-rays or bowel preparations recently.
What is being tested?
The study tests how different foods affect the human microbiome over time. Participants will consume meals from a commercial service for one week while their microbiome changes are monitored.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves consuming regular foods provided by a meal service, side effects may be minimal but could include typical food-related reactions such as indigestion, bloating, or allergic responses if participants are unaware of any pre-existing sensitivities.
