Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Modulation of the fecal microbiota: result described in micro-gas density (x 108 g-1 cells), by fluorescent in situ hybridization technique ;Alteration of the bacterial overgrowth frequency in the small intestine: result expressed as a percentage and evaluated by respiratory test of exhaled hydrogen and methane.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Changes in laboratory parameters: evaluation of hepatic transaminases, glycemic profile and lipid profile. Blood samples were collected and analyzed according to laboratory routine.;Change in anthropometric measurements and body composition: body weight, waist circumference, percentage of body fat and body mass index, by means of digital scale, tape measure and electric bioimpedance.
