Microbiome Analysis clinical trials at University of California Health

The goal of this observational study is to learn if a ketone ester can improve the content of the gut microbiome. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Does a ketone ester reduce age-related signatures in the gut microbiome? - What changes occur in the gut microbiome after consuming a ketone ester? Participants will: - Take a ketone ester drink every day for six (6) days - Collect and ship stool samples within seven (7) days before, during, and within seven (7) days after the study period - Measure their ketone levels with a urine strip every day after having the drink - Answer questions about their typical diet on a normal day - Record their symptoms, if any arise
