The Claim
Therapeutic strategies that target the gut microbiome, including probiotics, prebiotics, and fecal microbiota transplantation, are currently under investigation as potential interventions for the management of obesity and diabetes.
What the research says
Roughly balanced
Support and challenge are close. The picture may shift as more studies come in.
These are independent scores, not a percentage. Higher-grade studies count more, so a single strong opposing study can outweigh several weaker ones.
Scientists are looking into whether changing the bacteria in your gut—using things like probiotics, prebiotics, or even poop transplants—could help treat obesity and diabetes.
