Baseline statistics and general fiber findings. A) Baseline of selected clinical measurements shown with violin plots. Background colors represent health range of each test: red = above normal range, yellow = borderline, green = normal range. B) Coefficient of variation at baseline for each ome represented as a boxplot with outliers. The number of features is enumerated below each plot. C) Non-metric dimensional scaling for baseline clinical measures. Each color represents a different participant. D) From the metagenomics, Shannon Diversity was calculated for all fibers at all timepoints. Error bars are the standard error of the mean. Change is significant (one-way ANOVA). WD3 = Washout Day 3, WD10 = Washout Day 10, and WF = washout final. E) Scatter plot of change from baseline of microbial gene abundance calculated in AX and LCI when taking 30g. X-axis is AX, y-axis LCI. The bacteria most impacted by fiber supplementation are colored. See also Figure S1; and see Tables S1A and S1B.
