Scientists track gut bugs after weight loss surgery to find health clues

NCT ID NCT07381140

Summary

This study aims to understand how a common weight loss surgery changes the community of bacteria living in the gut over a year. Researchers will follow 100 adults, including those having surgery, people with obesity on a diet, and healthy-weight individuals. By comparing stool samples and health measurements, they hope to learn if specific bacterial changes are linked to better weight loss and metabolic health after surgery.
