Study Summary

The overall objective of the study is to examine the changes within the gut microbiome after the supplementation of inulin and its effect on markers of mineral metabolism and bone turnover.

Primary Outcome

Plasma calcium, phosphorus and magnesium will be assessed by an blood-chemistry autoanalyzer at the beginning and end of each supplementation period. Additionally, parathyroid hormone and fibroblast-growth factor will be assessed by ELISA.
