Brief summary
In this study, the investigators will evaluate the prebiotic effect of a moderate intake of extra virgin olive oil or red wine on the modulation of gut microbiota composition and the improvement of cardiometabolic factors in obese and lean adults subjects.
Interventions
Phase I: Extra VIrgin Olive Oil 80 grams per day (1 month) Washout Period: 15 days Phase II: Red Wine (270 ml per day) (1 month)
