This study is looking at how sleep affects the human microbiota (the community of tiny living things in and on your body). Researchers believe that changes in your microbiota might show up before you get sick, and could help predict when a disease might start or how well a treatment is working. This study will explore if your microbiota is changed by sleep restriction (getting less sleep) and weight gain. They want to see if these changes in microbiota are linked to health risks. The study aims to enroll 5000 healthy adults, aged 18 and older, who are already eligible for other approved studies. The goal is to see how your microbiota changes after one year due to sleep changes, and after 20 weeks due to changes in body weight and sleep.
