  • Has a gastrointestinal disease or condition, that by the investigators judgement, could interfere with the intestinal barrier function.
  • Are severely immunocompromised (transplant patient, on antirejection medications, on a steroid for 30 days, or chemotherapy or radiotherapy within the last year; HIV positive participants with undetectable viral loads would be allowed on the trial)
  • Have an active malignant disease or any concomitant end-stage organ disease (in the last 12 months), which, in the Investigator's judgment, contraindicates participation in the study.
