Effect of prebiotics on the health of the elderly

2013-08-01

Abstract excerpt

The longevity of the human population has increased in many countries, due to better quality of life generated by improved diet and medical advances. Ageing is related to diseases and alteration in the intestinal microbiota that predispose to changes in the immune system and the metabolism of glucose, lipids, and minerals. The use of prebiotics has shown a positive effect on the production of short-chain fatty aci...
