Obesity prevalence in relation to gut microbial environments capable of producing equol or O-desmethylangolensin from the isoflavone daidzein

Background/objectives: Studies have observed associations between the gut microbiome and obesity. O -desmethylangolensin (ODMA) and equol are gut bacterial metabolites of daidzein, a compound found in high amounts in soy foods. Approximately 80–95% and 25–60% of individuals harbor gut microbial comm...
