Summary

This study tests a tiny, swallowable device called a mini-pill that collects fluid from two spots in the gut as it passes through. Researchers want to see if the pill can show how eating meat versus plant-based meat alternatives changes gut bacteria and health markers. About 30 healthy adults over 50 will take part. The pill is not a treatment—it's a tool to learn more about the gut.
