This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases โ it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This research explores whether eating a wider variety of plants โ in the form of a blended vegetable drink โ can change your gut bacteria in ways that might help with PTSD symptoms. The study compares two groups: one drinking a beverage made from 30 different vegetables, and another drinking a simpler blend made from just 3 vegetables. Researchers will track changes in your gut bacteria, immune system, and PTSD symptoms over four weeks.
Scientists are learning that the bacteria living in our gut may influence mood, stress, and trauma recovery. This treatment explores whether increasing the diversity of plants we consume could lead to healthier gut bacteria and potentially reduce PTSD symptoms.
You will drink a 4-ounce vegetable beverage once daily for four weeks. You'll visit the clinic at the beginning, middle, and end of the study to provide blood and stool samples, and complete questionnaires about your mood, sleep, and digestive health. You'll also keep simple daily records of your bowel movements and a food diary every two weeks. The whole study lasts about four weeks.
