The effects of pulses proteins on the gut metagenome
Volunteers participating to the trial were randomized in three groups: PulD consumed a personalized, isocaloric and isoprotein pulses-enriched diet, replacing habitual servings of red/processed meat with pulses; PPD consumed a personalized isocaloric and isoprotein diet, replacing habitual servings of red/processed meat with a mixture of pulses and plant-based meat surrogates; HabD consumed their habitual diet.
