Comparing Effects of Fermented and Unfermented Pulses and Gut Microbiota

Sponsor: Penn State University

Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the effects of consuming fermented pulses (certain types of legumes like chickpeas or lentils) in healthy people. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. How does consuming the fermented foods impact the gut microbiome? 2. Does this interaction between the fermented foods and the gut microbiome affect inflammation? Participants will be asked to consume two sets of prepared meals, one containing unfermented pulses, the other containing fermented pulses. Researchers will compare the gut microbiome and inflammation between these two diets.
