  1. *Statistically significant: P < 0.0017; WG: whole grain products.
  2. 1Microbiome OTUs and collapsed taxa significantly associated with both hippurate and the hippurate diet score (quartile-ranked, scored and summed intakes of coffee, fruit and whole grains) are shown. Associations were adjusted for covariates (age, Shannon Index, metabolite batch, BMI, sex and family relatedness) and multiple testing using Bonferroni correction. Hippurate diet score associations were also adjusted for hippurate.
  3. 2OTU or collapsed taxonomy.
  4. 3All foods included in the hippurate diet score were fitted into a backwards stepwise linear regression using P < 0.05 as the cut-off threshold with each taxa associated to both hippurate and the diet score. Results displayed are the betas with standard errors of foods at least nominally associated (P < 0.05). Statistical significance was defined as P < 0.0017 (Bonferroni: 0.05/[10 taxa × 3 foods]).
