Study Summary

Microbial derived uremic solutes (p-cresol sulfate, indoxyl sulfate, and phenylacetylglutamine) are present in blood and excreted into the urine. Uremic solutes have high inter-individual variability of unclear etiology, that the investigators hypothesize is due to intestinal microbiome variation and/or dietary variation between people. In this study, the investigators will collect baseline samples on participant's habitual diet. The investigators will then administer a homogenous diet to all participants for 7 days and examine levels of uremic solutes in the urine via 24-hour urine collection during this period. In parallel, the investigators will monitor microbiome composition. The investigators predict that during the period subjects are consuming the same, homogenous diet, their excretion of uremic solutes (p-cresol sulfate, indoxyl sulfate, and phenylacetylglutamine) into the urine will have less inter-individual variation.

Primary Outcome

25% reduction of the coefficient of variation of 24hr urinary excretion of at least 1 of 3 uremic solutes (p-cresol sulfate, indoxyl sulfate or phenylacetylglutamine) measured in mg/day/1.73 during the homogenous diet period as compared to the baseline/habitual diet period.
