    The study identifies the profile of endocannabinoidome mediators in human feces, highlighting the influence of diet and gut microbiota.

  • 2

    Fecal levels of N-acyl-ethanolamines and 2-monoacyl-glycerols were positively correlated with circulating eCBome mediators, albeit weakly.

  • 3

    Dietary fiber intake was associated with lower fecal levels of several eCBome mediators, while unsaturated fatty acids increased specific 2-MAGs.

  • 4

    Gut microbiota composition significantly correlated with the fecal eCBome profile, suggesting a strong interrelation between gut microbiome and eCBome signaling.
