Fungal fiber gut health trial ends early – little to go on
NCT ID NCT06404749
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study aimed to compare a fiber from fungi (mycelium) with a plant-based fiber (inulin) for effects on gut health, immunity, and stress in healthy women aged 37-48. Only 8 participants were enrolled before the trial was terminated, so the results are too limited to draw meaningful conclusions.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
fungal fiber from mycelium
What this could lead to
If successful, this could suggest that fungal fiber is a better option than plant fiber for improving gut health and reducing stress.
What could go wrong
The trial was terminated early with only 8 participants, so results are very limited and may not be reliable or generalizable.
