Whole-plant virgin sugarcane fibre {51111188} Record Keys Definition:Whole-plant virgin sugarcane fibre Queue:[ ] Details Initialisation date:2021-04-12 Specification: [ ] Meta Information Type:Diet Host: Human Zone:[ ] Notes: [ ]Shared Reference Notes [1.1] - Whole-plant virgin sugarcane fibre is shown to ferment at a uniform rate and results in significant SCFA levels via microbial synthesis. - Supplementation of complex whole-plant sugarcane fibre alone and in combination with probiotic bacteria has been confirmed to impart anti-inflammatory effects on colonic tissues in mice models of IBD through production of SCFAs along the entire colon length and significantly reduce the colitis-associated diseases symptoms in-vivo and influence microbial diversity in the proximal and distal regions of the colon resulting in attenuation of gut inflammation. - The whole-plant sugarcane fibre has been previously demonstrated to impart positive effects on human gut microbiota in-vitro, particularly influencing the abundance of members of family #Bifidobacteriaceae. - Compared with the other dietary fibre supplements tested (wheat dextrin and psyllium husk), the whole plant sugarcane fibre shows the highest availability of #Polyphenols and antioxidant potential. - Addition of polyphenol extracts and polyphenol rich foods increase the abundance of #Bifidobacteriaceae.References Notes[ ]
