Fecal Microbial Transplantation and Fiber Supplementation in Subjects With Obesity and Metabolic Syndrome

The homeostasis Model Assessment-Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR) is a mathematical model to predict the interaction between glucose and insulin dynamics across a range of glucose plasma levels assuming a feedback circuit between the liver and β-cells in the pancreas

Assessment of the current health related quality of life will be accomplished by conducting standardized interviews and by using the validated questionnaires EQ-5D Index. Participants will report perceived health outcomes using this validated survey, and rank overall perceived health from 0 (low)- 100 (high).

Dietary intake will be assessed for each clinic using MyFitnessPal.

. Levels of leptin, ghrelin, adiponectin, TNFα, IL-6, LPS (lipopolysaccharide), LPS-binding protein and zonulin will be determined using currently accepted laboratory techniques.

Stool microbiome will be analyzed for Operational Taxonomic Unit determination.

Changes in Fasting lipid profile between baseline and 6 and 12 weeks

The oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) is a dynamic test that reflects the efficiency of the body to dispose of glucose after an oral load. It is commonly used in clinical scenarios to diagnose glucose intolerance and diabetes. [33] After overnight fast (> 8 h), blood samples for determination of glucose and insulin concentration will be taken at -5, 0, 30, 60, and 120 min following a standard oral glucose load.

Assessed via the standardized hunger and satiety questionnaire (categorical variables with no analog scale)

Assessed via the standardized gastrointestinal tolerance questionnaire (categorical variables with no analog scale)

All individual participant data will be kept private and not distributed to other researchers outside of our study group. After the study is done, we will keep data stored for 25 years.
