In plain language
Randomized 10-week trial, 36 healthy adults; a fermented-food diet (yogurt, kefir, fermented cottage cheese, kimchi, other fermented vegetables, vegetable brine drinks, kombucha) increased overall microbial diversity and lowered 19 inflammatory proteins including IL-6, with reduced activation of four immune cell types; an equally high-fiber diet did not increase diversity in the same window.
