TL;DR: The data support a relationship between diet, microbiota and health status, and indicate a role for diet-driven microbiota alterations in varying rates of health decline upon ageing.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dietary Fibre Modulates the Gut Microbiota
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined how different types of dietary fiber can differentially alter glucose and lipid metabolism through changes in gut microbiota composition and function, suggesting a causative link between diet, microbes and disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: There are multiple potentially modifiable determinants of malnutrition however strong robust evidence is lacking for the majority of determinants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Review article: dietary fibre in the era of microbiome science
TL;DR: Confounding factors included a failure to appreciate the molecular diversity and varied properties of fibre‐types and the role of fibre as a substrate for microbial metabolism in the gut.
Journal ArticleDOI
Food and nutrient intake of Irish community-dwelling elderly subjects: Who is at nutritional risk?
Susan E. Power,Ian B. Jeffery,R.P. Ross,R.P. Ross,Catherine Stanton,Catherine Stanton,Paul W. O'Toole,Eibhlís M. O'Connor,Eibhlís M. O'Connor,Gerald F. Fitzgerald +9 more
TL;DR: The data indicate that the diet of Irish community-dwelling elderly individuals is suboptimal with respect to nutrient intake, and excessive in terms of fat intake, with implications for the health status of this population group.
