Can your microbiome tell you what to eat?
Open accessAbstract
Prospects for using the gut microbiome for personalized medicine are substantial since the gut microbiome is known to modulate metabolism and varies substantially among individuals. Zeevi et al. (2015) demonstrate that the gut microbiota can be used to predict individualized blood glucose responses to particular foods, which differ between individuals.

It has been proposed that gut bacteria can influence neurobehavior including host appetite for food.
“It has been proposed that gut bacteria can influence neurobehavior including host appetite for food (135, 137, 182), so it is not implausible to predict associations between microbiota and all substances passing through the gut.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
