First seen May 14, 2026 · Last updated May 25, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study looks at how eating different amounts of cysteine, a protein building block, affects gut bacteria and inflammation in people at higher risk for colon cancer. Researchers will compare Black and White adults aged 45-75 who have had colon polyps. Participants will follow both a high-cysteine and a low-cysteine diet for three weeks each, and provide blood, stool, and saliva samples. The goal is to understand if diet-related changes in gut bacteria can help explain cancer disparities.
