研究概览

简要总结

The study will investigate the effect of cereal based prebiotic fibres on intestinal health and functioning and host metabolism.

详细描述

A human dietary intervention study will be performed in overweight to obese subjects with a slow gastrointestinal transit time comparing the effects of a soluble prebiotic fibre vs. placebo on gut health, including gut microbiota composition, gastrointestinal transit time, metabolic health and quality of life.
