The project analyzes several biological markers, including cognitive effects, gut microbiome composition, urine and fecal metabolomics, and cytokine levels.
- Cognitive behavioral outcomes
- Gut microbiome profiling
- Urine and faecal metabolome analysis
- Cytokine response measurements

A recent study by Harvard scientists reveals the connection between gut bacteria and their role in inflammation and depression. The research highlights how certain bacteria can influence mental health and inflammatory responses, offering potential new avenues for treatment.
These results,” the authors write, “suggest a role for fungi … » in the association between gut microbiomes and obesity.” Currently, over a third Trusted Sourceof adults in the United States are obese, and between 15 and 20 percent of U.S. children and teenagers have this metabolic disorder.
Dr. Gale notes that the role of fungi in understanding obesity has been neglected in the research community, and that the available study methods should reflect the need to pay more attention to fungi.
