Beyond “you are what you eat”: Unlocking gut microbiota‐mediated biotransformation of dietary phytochemicals

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
The “efficacy paradox” of phytochemicals, low bioavailability yet significant health benefits, is associated with gut microbiota, which biotransforms dietary precursors into bioactive metabolites, enabling systemic effects. Thus, health outcomes of diet depend not just on intake “the rainbow”, but on gut microbial metabolism, redefining “you are what ...
