About This Study

The researchers are doing this study to look at how butyrate levels change in participants' stool after they are on a- plant-based diet for at least 12 weeks. All participants will have monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS) or smoldering multiple myeloma (SMM). We will compare how the plant-based diet, omega-3 fatty acid and curcumin supplements, and placebo (an inactive substance that looks like the study supplements) affect butyrate levels in participants' stool.

  • 3If light chain MGUS/SMM then involved must be ≥10 mg/dL or BM PC ≥10% (both not required)
  • 4If IgA MGUS/SMM then an IgA level \>350 mg/dL and an abnormal immunofixation is required (M spike criteria not required).
  • 5If IgD MGUS/SMM then an IgD level \>50 mg/dL and an abnormal immunofixation is required (M spike criteria not required).
