Description: Bacterial up-and down shifts after smoothie periods and recoveries of abundance after WO periods. During the intervention, group 1 consumed first pectin-enriched smoothie (HPect) followed by washout (WO HPect), and consumption of the control smoothie (LPect) with washout ()WO Lpect.
Abundance in Group 1: increased abundance in After high pectin smoothie (HPect)
