Dietary fiber and prebiotics and the gastrointestinal microbiota.

TL;DR: The current knowledge of the impact of fiber and prebiotic consumption on the composition and metabolic function of the human gastrointestinal microbiota is reviewed, including the effects of physiochemical properties of complex carbohydrates, adequate intake and treatment dosages, and the phenotypic responses related to the composition of thehuman microbiota.

Composition, properties and health benefits of indigestible carbohydrate polymers as dietary fiber: a review.

TL;DR: Inclusion of indigestible carbohydrates as dietary fiber in daily diet imparts several health benefits such as prevention or reduction of bowel disorders, and decrease risk of coronary heart disease and type 2 diabetes.

In vitro antioxidant properties of crude extracts and compounds from brown algae

TL;DR: In vitro antioxidant chemical methods, used as a first approach to evaluate potential agents to protect from lipid oxidation in foods, confirmed that the brown algae crude extracts, fractions and pure components are comparatively similar or superior to synthetic antioxidants.

Chemical, technological and in vitro antioxidant properties of mango, guava, pineapple and passion fruit dietary fibre concentrate.

TL;DR: Exotic fruit fibres obtained as co-products in the process to obtain juice may be considered a good source of natural compounds with significant antioxidant activity and a good correlation between total phenol content and antioxidant capacity.

Effect of grape antioxidant dietary fibre on the prevention of lipid oxidation in minced fish: Evaluation by different methodologies

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of grape antioxidant dietary fiber (GADF) addition to minced fish muscle (MFM) on lipid stability during frozen storage (6 months) was studied.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fiber: Forms and functions

TL;DR: In this article, the authors defined dietary fiber as the nonstarch polysaccharide constituent of plant cell walls which is resistant to human digestive enzymes, but this characterization is limited because it does not encompass all substances which are physically or chemically similar to dietary fiber, or which have the same physiological effects.

Chemical, physical and baking properties of dietary fiber prepared from rice straw

TL;DR: In this article, the authors showed that 5% of alkaline hydrogen peroxide treated rice straw (AHP-RS) substitution in bread, reductions of loaf volume and softness of bread was observed and directly opposite with particle size reduction.
Journal ArticleDOI

Possible implications for health of the different definitions of dietary fibre

TL;DR: Given the need for a definition of dietary fibre which can be used for food labelling, setting nutrient reference values and decisions relating to health claims it is important to achieve agreement as to what constitutes a meaningful physiological effect and the level of evidence required to be certain of such effect.

The composition of dietary fibre-rich extrudates from oat affects bile acid binding and fermentation in vitro

TL;DR: A series of extrudates was prepared from oat meal, oat bran and Novelose 330®, differing in concentrations of individual dietary fibre (DF) components, such as β-glucan and resistant starch, as well as total DF as discussed by the authors.
