Metagenomics Analysis of Gut Microbiota in a High Fat Diet–Induced Obesity Mouse Model Fed with (−)‐Epigallocatechin 3‐<i>O</i>‐(3‐<i>O</i>‐Methyl) Gallate (EGCG3″Me)

Abstract

An EGCG3″Me supplemented diet produces promising effects on gut microecology by enhancing beneficial microbial populations and by affecting metabolic pathways including amino acids biosynthesis, the two-component system, and ABC transporters, contributing to the improvement of host health.
