2 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
This is a new, commercially available, over-the-counter fiber supplement that combines 8 fibers. The varied nature of the fibers in this product is designed to create a more diverse microbiome (bacteria that live within the human GI tract). In general, the more diverse the microbiome the less inflammatory the gut. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of a new fiber product on bloating, gas, and bowel movements.
The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of probiotic supplemented yogurt in reducing colonic transit time (CTT) in females between the ages of 18-65 years old. Two yogurts will be administered, one containing a specific strain of probiotic in the Bifidobacterium genus and the other without the probiotic supplement. It is hypothesized that subjects receiving the probiotic supplemented yogurt will experience reduced CTT and improved gastrointestinal comfort and quality of life compared to those receiving the non-probiotic supplemented yogurt.
