Microbiota responses to different prebiotics are conserved within individuals and associated with habitual fiber intake
Abstract Background Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) derived from gut bacteria are associated with protective roles in diseases ranging from obesity to colorectal cancers. Intake of microbially accessible dietary fibers (prebiotics) lead to varying effects on SCFA production in human studies, and gut...
