Molecular Targets Open for Regulation by the gut flora – New Avenues for improved Diet to Optimize European health (TORNADO)

Start date: Sep 1, 2009, End date: Aug 31, 2014,

"Europe is facing major diet related health problems. Attitudes to eating habits have to be changed and the benefits of alternative treatment regimes substantiated. This can only be achieved by providing guidelines regulating health claims based on scientific data. Thus, there is a unique opportunity to use gut flora in potential treatment regimes and as a preventive target for major diet related ...
