What is fibre? It’s a complex carbohydrate found in the plants we eat, that can’t be digested by the small intestine. Instead, it’s broken down inside the large intestine by bacteria for food.4The NHS says we should aim for 30g of fibre per day. But most adults only eat about ...
Fibre is a key carbohydrate component of all plant foods (e.g. fruits, vegetables, grains and legumes) that is not digestible. [1] Instead, fibre performs many other functions that help to keep the gut and the rest of the body healthy. Different fibre types exist, namely insoluble, solubl...

Tryptophan is catabolized by gut microorganisms resulting in a wide range of metabolites implicated in both beneficial and adverse host effects. How gut microbial tryptophan metabolism is directed towards indole, associated with chronic kidney disease, o
作者: A Järvi 摘要: The glycaemic responses to various carbohydrate-rich foods are partly dependent on the rate at which the carbohydrate is digested and absorbed. The glycaemic index (GI) is a way of ranking foods according to their glycaemic response and is recommended as a useful tool ...
Human skeletal muscle is composed of three major fibre types (type I, IIa, and IIx), which differ in their contractile, metabolic and bioenergetic characteristics; this is reflected by a greater reliance on mitochondrial oxidative enzyme activity in type I fibres13,14,15 and greater glycolytic ...
This restrictive and short-term diet is designed to ease discomfort and allow tissue healing. A low-residue diet is similar but slightly more restrictive; differences are noted below. Who needs a low-fibre diet? You may have been put on a low-fibre diet because of a risk of bowel ...
of the product (granules or capsules), the timing of the dose with respect to that of a carbohydrate-containing meal, and the presence or absence of a 'second meal' effect (that is, the ability to reduce postprandial glycaemia the following morning after an evening dose of the supplement)...
Bdellovibrio bacteriovorus is a bacterium that preys upon a wide range of other Gram-negative bacteria, entering their periplasm and consuming them from within. Physical contacts between B. bacteriovorus and diverse prey bacterial surfaces precede a decision-making stage in which the predator commits ...
