Urinary enterolignans and enterolignan-predicting microbial species are favourably associated with liver fat and other obesity markers

: Plant-derived lignans may protect against obesity, while their bioactivity needs gut microbial conversion to enterolignans. We used repeated measures to identify enterolignan-predicting microbial species and investigate whether enterolignans and enterolignan-predicting microbial species are associated with obesity.
