Summary

This trial aims to see if a program focusing on analyzing and improving the gut microbiome of infants delivered via Cesarean section can enhance gut health, decrease health risks, and empower parents. The study

Who is the study for?
This trial is for infants aged 0-3 months who were delivered via Cesarean section. It aims to help parents improve their child's gut health and reduce future health risks through microbiome analysis and education.
What is being tested?
The study tests if personalized recommendations based on microbiome analysis, along with educational support, can positively impact an infant's gut health compared to just receiving this information after the study ends.
What are the potential side effects?
Since the interventions involve non-invasive procedures like stool sample collection, tailored recommendations, consult calls, and email series for education, there are no direct side effects associated with typical medical treatments.
