The Human Fecal Endocannabinoidome Mediator Profile Is Mainly Defined by the Fecal Microbiota and Diet

J Clin Endocrinol MetabPublished Cross-sectional study

Authors' conclusion

The fecal eCBome profile is associated with gut microbiota composition and dietary intakes, more than with the circulating profile. These results strengthen the hypothesis of an interrelation between the gut microbiome and eCBome signaling involved in the regulation of numerous host biological processes.
