Longitudinal Impact of Food Insecurity on the Gut Microbiome and Metabolome in College Students: Insights Into Microbial Stability and Metabolic Adaptations

Year: 2025

Type: article

Study design: Observational Study

Abstract: Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the longitudinal impact of food insecurity (FI) on the gut microbiome (GM) and metabolome in first-year college students. We hypothesized that FI would influence microbial diversity, functional pathways, and metabolite profiles, reflecting adaptive mechanisms to dietary constraints.
