The impact of elemental diet on the human gut microbial structure and the intestinal metabolites
Elemental diet has clinical efficacy for Crohn's disease, while the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. It has been reported that diet influence the gut microbiota and the gut dysbiosis plays a role in Crohn's disease pathogenesis. We hypothesized that elemental diet alters the gut microbiota to the anti-inflammatory condition and aimed to test this hypothesis.
