Summary

This study tests whether taking a daily fiber and magnesium supplement (WellBiome) for 6-8 weeks before heart surgery can improve recovery. Researchers will compare ICU time, complications, and hospital stay between 80 patients who get the supplement or a placebo. The goal is to see if preparing the gut microbiome can reduce stress from surgery and save healthcare costs.
