Summary

This pilot study tests a new synbiotic formula (SGR11) in 50 adults with mild-to-moderate ulcerative colitis, a type of inflammatory bowel disease. Participants take the supplement daily for 8 weeks. Researchers will check if symptoms improve and if the supplement is safe, using questionnaires and stool samples.

What this could lead to

If it works, this could point toward a simple dietary supplement to help manage ulcerative colitis symptoms and improve gut health.
