    The immune system is the body’s premier line of defense against microbial pathogens, yet some microbes are treated as friends instead of foes. The colonization of the human body with microbes is critical to a newborn’s developing immune system and metabolic health, and this dynamic process may impact long-term health as well. Researchers are exploring how the body’s earliest interactions with the mic robiome can misfire, leading to childhood disease. Others are probing the molecular details of how immune

    Objective To explore the interplay between dietary modifications, microbiome composition and host metabolic responses in a dietary intervention setting of a personalised postprandial-targeting (PPT) diet versus a Mediterranean (MED) diet in pre-diabetes. Design In a 6-month dietary intervention, adults with pre-diabetes were randomly assigned to follow an MED or PPT diet (based on a machine-learning algorithm for predicting postprandial glucose responses). Data collected at baseline and 6 months from 200 participants who completed the intervention included: dietary data from self-recorded logging using a smartphone application, gut microbiome data from shotgun metagenomics sequencing of faecal samples, and clinical data from continuous glucose monitoring, blood biomarkers and anthropometrics. Results PPT diet induced more prominent changes to the gut microbiome composition, compared with MED diet, consistent with overall greater dietary modifications observed. Particularly, microbiome
