Novel fermented plant-based functional beverage: biological potential and impac...

Controlled fermentation carried out by selected starters might enhance the safety, nutritional, and biological profiles of non-dairy fermented products. This research aims to study the biological potential and impact on the human gut microbiota of a novel fermented finger millet-based product. Finger millet (Eleusine coracana), suspended in an aqueous sucrose-based solution, was fermented by Weissella confusa 2...

Impact of a legumes diet on the human gut microbiome articulated with fecal and...

Background & aims: Legumes intake is known to be associated with several health benefits the origins of which is still a matter of debate. This paper addresses a pilot small cohort to probe for metabolic aspects of the interplay between legumes intake, human metabolism and gut microbiota. Methods: Untargeted nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) metabolomics of blood plasma and fecal extracts was carried out, in tan...

Impact of novel clean label ham formulations on the human gut microbiota

Introduction: The influence of diet on the human gut microbiota has been the subject of much debate, particularly in relation to innovative products that are still considered novel. Dietary habits have a fundamental impact on the human gut microbiota, which explains the variations observed between individuals and over the course of a lifetime. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of four clean label...

Modulation of the gut microbiota by tomato flours obtained after conventional a...

Several studies have supported the positive functional health effects of both prebiotics and probiotics on gut microbiota. Among these, the selective growth of beneficial bacteria due to the use of prebiotics and bioactive compounds as an energy and carbon source is critical to promote the development of healthy microbiota within the human gut. The present work aimed to assess the fermentability of tomato flour...

Chronic urticaria in the real-life clinical practice setting in Portugal: 2-yea...

Introduction: Information regarding chronic urticaria patients in the real-world setting is scarce. This analysis reports the two-year results of Portuguese patients included in the AWARE study.Material and Methods: Non-interventional cohort study. Adult patients with a diagnosis of chronic urticaria with symptoms for at least two months, refractory to H1-antihistamines, consulting one of the 10 participating u...

Impact of a pulse-based vegetarian lunch meal on the modulation of gut bacteria...

Introduction: The current global trend to adopt more plant-based diets is expected to increase the intake of pulses in the near future, given their potential as eco-friendly nutrient-rich alternatives to animal-based protein food sources. Still, more comprehensive data, as well as higher quality food intervention trials, are needed to fully understand the health benefits of such dietary shift, namely at the gut...
