Summary
This study tests a swallowable mini-pill that collects samples from different parts of the gut as it passes through the body. About 30 adults over age 50 will eat meat-based and plant-based diets to see how each changes gut bacteria and health markers. The pill is not a treatment—it's a tool to help researchers understand the link between diet, gut microbes, and overall health.
