First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether taking glucomannan powder, a type of fiber, can improve the balance of bacteria in the gut.

They will measure changes in gut bacteria and blood markers like cholesterol and blood sugar to see if the fiber has any effect.
