Summary

Objective: To identify how specific changes of the gluten content in the diet affect the host-gut microbiome interactions with implications for metabolic health.

Design: A randomized, controlled, single-blinded, cross-over intervention trial consisting of two 8-week interventions periods, separated by a 6-week wash-out period. A total number of 60 participants will be included.

Intervention: low vs high gluten intake.

Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

High gluten

Refined grain/ gluten rich diet : Participants consume more than 25g of gluten per day (estimated to correspond to a gluten intake around the 90th percentile in the population)

OTHER

Low gluten

Poor gluten diet: Participants consume less than 5g gluten per day (estimated to correspond to a gluten intake below the 10th percentile in the population)
