Plasma glucuronidated bile acids
upin humans1
Plant-protein replacement diet increases plasma glucuronidated bile acids in humans.
“Plasma glucuronidated BAs increased, expanding the circulating pool of readily excreted BA conjugates.”

Plant-protein replacement diet decreases fecal secondary and taurine-conjugated bile acids in humans.
“The 70% plant-protein diet also reduced fecal secondary and taurine-conjugated BAs, including the CRC-associated BAs DCA and LCA.”

Fecal total and haem-derived N-nitroso compounds
downin humans1
Plant-protein replacement diet decreases fecal total and haem-derived N-nitroso compounds in humans.
“potentially carcinogenic total and haem-derived NOCs declined progressively with plant-protein replacement.”

Gut microbiota composition
upin humans1
Plant-protein replacement diet increases gut microbiota composition in humans.
“The 70% plant-protein diet significantly restructured the gut microbiota, increasing fiber-associated Lachnospiraceae and Roseburia while reducing Methanobrevibacter and several asaccharolytic taxa.”
