Food for thought! Inulin-type fructans: Does the food matrix matter?

Peter Philip James Jackson et al.

Summary: Food matrices, resulting from interactions between compounds and processing parameters, can affect the structure and bioavailability of potentially beneficial compounds. This review explores whether the food matrix impacts the prebiotic efficacy of inulin-type fructans. The hypothesis is that other ingredients in food may alter the prebiotic effect.

Cereal β-glucan: a promising prebiotic polysaccharide and its impact on the gut health

Mahtab Shoukat et al.

Summary: Cereal beta-glucan is a water-soluble, prebiotic and bioactive polysaccharide dietary fibre that has numerous health benefits, such as cancer prevention, anti-inflammatory activity, skin protection, antioxidant effects, immune modulation, and reduction of glycaemia and serum cholesterol. It plays a significant role in gut health by regulating barrier permeability, gut microbiota, intestinal immune system, intestinal inflammation, colon cancer protection, and production of short-chain fatty acids through specific cytokines and hormones regulation.

Development of a prebiotic blend to influence in vitro fermentation effects, with a focus on propionate, in the gut

Sineaid M. Collins et al.

Summary: Short chain fatty acids (SCFAs), particularly propionate, derived from the human gut microbiota may beneficially influence metabolic processes like appetite regulation. Certain prebiotics were found to increase propionate production, while others reduced the acetate to propionate ratio. Fermentation of different prebiotics in colon showed varying effects on microbial ecology, lactate and SCFA production, indicating potential wider prebiotic functionality.
