Impact of a Limosilactobacillus fermentum, Quercetin, and Resveratrol Nutraceutical on Fecal Microbiota Composition and Metabolic Activity in Healthy and Hypertensive Subjects

mycolabadmin

Researchers tested a dietary supplement containing beneficial bacteria and plant compounds on human gut microbiota samples. The supplement successfully modified the composition and activity of gut bacteria in both healthy and high blood pressure patients. The supplement increased production of beneficial acids and modified which bacteria were present in the fermentation samples. These findings suggest this type of supplement could potentially help manage high blood pressure by improving gut health.

The release patterns and potential prebiotic characteristics of soluble and insoluble dietary fiber-bound polyphenols from pinot noir grape pomace in vitro digestion and fermentation

mycolabadmin

This study examined how grape pomace dietary fiber and its bound polyphenols are broken down in the digestive system and colon. Researchers found that soluble fiber was particularly effective at releasing beneficial compounds that feed healthy gut bacteria and produce short-chain fatty acids important for health. The fiber types promoted beneficial bacteria like Bifidobacterium while reducing harmful bacteria, suggesting grape pomace could be a valuable ingredient in functional foods to support digestive and overall health.
