Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The relationship between the gut microbiota and stress is poorly studied in humans. In this study we aim to look for if stressed persons have different levels of key bacterial groups compared to the levels in non-stressed persons.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The gut microbial flora will be analyzed with molecular genetic methods. Stress will be measured with cortisol levels in saliva and with questionnaire.
