Gut microbiome diversity influenced more by the Westernized dietary regime than the body mass index as assessed using effect size statistic

Abstract excerpt

Abstract Human gut microbiome dysbiosis has been associated with the onset of metabolic diseases and disorders. However, the critical factors leading to dysbiosis are poorly understood. In this study, we provide increasing evidence of the association of diet type and body mass index ( BMI ) and how they relatively influence the taxonomic structure of the gut microbiota with respect to the causation of gut...
