Dietary interventions that target the gut microbiota have been suggested to improve metabolic health. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of interventions with\n                    <jats:italic>Lactobacillus paracasei<\/jats:italic>\n                    F19 or flaxseed mucilage on the gut microbiota and metabolic risk markers in obesity. A total of fifty-eight obese postmenopausal women were randomised to a single-blinded, parallel-group intervention of 6-week duration, with a daily intake of either\n                    <jats:italic>L. paracasei<\/jats:italic>\n                    F19 (9\u00b74\u00a0\u00d7\u00a010\n                    <jats:sup>10<\/jats:sup>\n                    colony-forming units), flaxseed mucilage (10\u00a0g) or placebo. Quantitative metagenomic analysis of faecal DNA was performed to identify the changes in the gut microbiota. Diet-induced changes in metabolic markers were explored using adjusted linear regression models. The intake of flaxseed mucilage over 6 weeks led to a reduction in serum C-peptide and insulin release during an oral glucose tolerance test (\n                    <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                    &lt;\u00a00\u00b705) and improved insulin sensitivity measured by Matsuda index (\n                    <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                    &lt;\u00a00\u00b705). Comparison of gut microbiota composition at baseline and after 6 weeks of intervention with flaxseed mucilage showed alterations in abundance of thirty-three metagenomic species (\n                    <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                    &lt;\u00a00\u00b701), including decreased relative abundance of eight\n                    <jats:italic>Faecalibacterium<\/jats:italic>\n                    species. These changes in the microbiota could not explain the effect of flaxseed mucilage on insulin sensitivity. The intake of\n                    <jats:italic>L. paracasei<\/jats:italic>\n                    F19 did not modulate metabolic markers compared with placebo. In conclusion, flaxseed mucilage improves insulin sensitivity and alters the gut microbiota; however, the improvement in insulin sensitivity was not mediated by the observed changes in relative abundance of bacterial species.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1017\/s0007114515001786","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2015,7,2]],"date-time":"2015-07-02T04:55:03Z","timestamp":1435812903000},"page":"406-417","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1017\/policypage","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":148,"title":["Dietary modulation of the gut microbiota \u2013 a randomised controlled trial in obese postmenopausal women"],"prefix":"10.1017","volume":"114","author":[{"given":"Lena K.","family":"Brahe","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Emmanuelle","family":"Le Chatelier","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Edi","family":"Prifti","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nicolas","family":"Pons","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sean","family":"Kennedy","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Trine","family":"Bl\u00e6del","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Janet","family":"H\u00e5kansson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Trine Kastrup","family":"Dalsgaard","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Torben","family":"Hansen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Oluf","family":"Pedersen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Arne","family":"Astrup","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"S.
