Official title
Impact of a High-Soluble Fiber Diet on the Gut-Muscle Axis in Older Adults
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Muscle health declines during aging. One factor that may impact muscle health is the community of bacteria that live in our intestines, but studies aimed at improving muscle health by targeting the gut in older adults are sparse. The primary goal of this study is to use a diet that is enriched in soluble fiber, which is exclusively utilized by gut bacteria to make substances that can impact muscle health, to improve muscle-related measures in older adults.
