First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a once-daily food supplement designed to improve gut bacteria in people with mild-to-moderate ulcerative colitis. About 162 adults will take either the supplement or a placebo for 24 weeks, alongside their usual treatment. The goal is to see if the supplement helps achieve remission, meaning no bleeding, better stool frequency, and lower inflammation markers.
