Clinical Trial: Heme and Non-heme Iron Intakes, Gut Microbiota, and Influence on Host Iron Absorption
Study Status: Completed
Recruit Status: RECRUITING
Condition: Anemia, Iron Deficiency
Study Type: OBSERVATIONAL
Official Title: Heme and Non-heme Iron Intakes, Gut Microbiota, and Influence on Host Iron Absorption
Brief Summary:
The FeMicrobiome study will evaluate gut microbiome features and their relationships with dietary iron absorption in healthy adults.We hypothesize that (1) the gut microbiota can be shaped by the heme and non-heme Fe content of the diet and that (2) this will influence individual variation in dietary Fe absorption.
