One week phase 1 metformin/prebiotic associated with shifts in gut microbiome
To explore short term effects of prebiotic and metformin on the gut microbiota, we compared pre-metformin/prebiotic to one week of Phase 1 metformin/prebiotic. Phase 1 metformin/prebiotic altered microbiome beta-diversity; however, alpha-diversity and number of OTUs remained unchanged (Microbiome signatures in pre metformin/prebiotic and Phase 1 metformin/prebiotic.
