After 10 weeks of intervention with live L. rhamnosus IOB820 or its postbiotics, body weight, metabolic parameters (blood glucose, lipid profile, hepatic steatosis), pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, IL-6, IL-1β, IL-10), gut microbiota composition (α, β diversity and taxonomic shifts), and fecal short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) levels were assessed. This evidence concerns the gene IL10 and Hepatic steatosis.
