Registered summary
The importance of the gut microbiota for general health has been recently elucidated, but little is known about the impact of different types of nutrients on the gut microbiota. The soluble fiber in cereal by-products, arabinoxylan (AX), is known to be beneficial for generally promoting gut health. However, it is unclear whether consuming rice bran (RB), the source of AX, is equally helpful or better than consuming the extracted form of AX. The full summary is on the listing.
