Associations of plant-based foods, red and processed meat, and dairy with gut microbiome in Finnish adults

ConclusionOur results suggest a potential association between plant-based foods and dairy or their subgroups with microbial diversity measures. Furthermore, our findings indicated that all the food groups were associated with distinct overall microbial community compositions. Plant-based food consumption particularly was associated with a larger number of putative beneficial species.
