Plant-Based Diet With Supplements
for Multiple Myeloma

The study involves people with specific blood conditions called MGUS or SMM. Researchers want to see if these dietary changes and supplements can increase butyrate, a substance in the gut that can influence health. Fish oil supplements have been shown to lower plasma triglyceride levels but may increase LDL cholesterol and apolipoprotein B levels.
