High-level adherence to a Mediterranean diet beneficially impacts the gut microbiota and associated metabolome.

TL;DR: High-level consumption of plant foodstuffs consistent with an MD is associated with beneficial microbiome-related metabolomic profiles in subjects ostensibly consuming a Western diet, as well as higher urinary trimethylamine oxide levels in individuals with lower adherence to the MD.
Journal ArticleDOI

Contribution of diet to the composition of the human gut microbiota.

TL;DR: The aim of this review is to summarize the recently published evidence from human in vivo studies on the gut microbiota-modulating effects of diet and highlight the problems faced by scientists in this fast-developing field of research, and the need for high-quality, large-scale human dietary intervention studies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Exploitation of vegetables and fruits through lactic acid fermentation

TL;DR: The main features of the protocols used for the manufacture of traditional, emerging and innovative fermented vegetables and fruits were reviewed and several evidences were described in favour of the use of selected autochthonous starters, which are tailored for the specific plant matrix.
Journal ArticleDOI

Proteolysis by Sourdough Lactic Acid Bacteria: Effects on Wheat Flour Protein Fractions and Gliadin Peptides Involved in Human Cereal Intolerance

TL;DR: Compared to the chemically acidified dough, proteolysis by lactobacilli positively influenced the softening of the dough during fermentation, as determined by rheological analyses.
