Figure 1 Modulation of Gut Bacterial Diversity with Food Approach to Prevent Type 2 Diabetes Food patterns that provide both complex carbohydrates and greater levels of phytonutrients such as polyphenols can increase gut bacterial diversity and reduce postprandial glucose response. Such communities may protect against type 2 diabetes. The personalized nutrition approach pioneered by Zeevi et al. may help us understand which of these types of features will apply to everyone and which will need to be applied to specific individuals.
