Clinical Trial Summary

To determine the effect of 4 weeks daily consumption of Fruitflow on changes in plasma levels of fasting Trimethylamine N-oxide concentrations (TMAO)


Clinical Trial Description

Tomatoes contain a range of polyphenols that are of low bioavailability and reach the colon. Data from animal studies suggest that certain polyphenols are extensively metabolized by the gut microbiota which may impact bioactivity including TMA/TMAO production. It was previously shown that a polyphenol-rich cranberry extract attenuated diet-induced metabolic syndrome in mice in a gut microbiota-dependent manner. In another mouse study the polyphenol resveratrol attenuated TMAO-induced atherosclerosis by decreasing TMAO levels and increasing hepatic bile acid neosynthesis via gut microbiota remodelling. However, human studies on polyphenol effect on TMAO levels and the gut microbiome are sparse. In a recent study TMAO serum levels were reduced in healthy subjects upon supplementation with a grape pomace polyphenolic extract.

This clinical study will provide new insight into the effect of tomato extract on TMAO levels and the gut microbiota composition and thus potential new mechanisms responsible for the cardiovascular protective effects. ;
