otgher groups

Arm group label:
Vegans
Summary:
This projects aims to characterize dietary habits and nutrition quality of pro-vegetarian
diets as compared to omnivorous diets. It also aims to stablish gut microbial and
metabolit profiles of this dietary pattern, in order to elucidate the role of plant-based
diets in cancer prevention and treatment.
Detailed description:
Plant-based foods (fruits, vegetables, cereals, nuts and seeds, legumes, and vegetable
oils) are the main source of fiber and other bioactive compounds in the diet. Plant-based
diets are therefore assumed to prevent mortality and the ocurrence of chronic diseases
including cancer. However, evidence on this issue is still scarce, and the mechanisms and
drivers of their potential health benefits are also only partially known.
The main objectices of this project are:
1. To develop and validate dietary assessment methods for the vegetarian population
2. To assess dietary habits and consumer beliefs of vegetarians with respect to
omnivores, considering different types of vegetarian diets
3. To identify a gut microbiota signature related to plant-based diets from subgroups
of subjects following a plant-based diet foods (vegans, lacto-vegetarians, ..., and
pro-vegetarians) and omnivorous subjects (non-plant-based diets), from stool
metagenomic sequencing.
4. To relate this signature with metabolites present in faeces (related to the presence
of certain microbial species) and in urine to improve the predictive capacity of the
microbial signature of vegetable diets.
5. Validate the signature using independent study populations, and including colorectal
and breast cancer survivors as another study target.
