The effect of dietary bioactive on gut microbiome diversity (DIME) – a pilot study

The DIME study consists of a randomised 2x2 cross-over human intervention where healthy participants (n = 20) are subjected to a diet high in bioactive-rich food for two weeks and a diet low in bioactive-rich food. There is a four-week washout between the two interventions. 

The continuous glucose monitoring was achieved using the Abbott freesylte libre flash glucose device. The baseline of the participants were determined 7 days before the start of the intervention followed by the first arm and second arm. The period between the two arms (washout) was not recorded.
