A diverse set of solubilized natural fibers drives structure-dependent metabolism and modulation of the human gut microbiota

Abstract excerpt

ABSTRACT Growing evidence suggests that inadequate dietary fiber intake, termed the “fiber gap,” is linked to disease states through disruption of the gut microbiota. Despite this, our understanding of how various fiber structures influence the microbiota and health is limited by the lack of diverse commercially available fibers. Studies have primarily focused on a limited range of fibers, rather than the diverse...
