Particularly in Indonesia, women have a higher risk of T2D compared to men. Two of the major factors affecting T2D are lifestyle and eating patterns. Association of food intake with intestinal microbiota, short-chain fatty acid (SCFA), and metabolic markers in Indonesian women with T2D were investigated in this study.
