Nov 17, 2016 · PMCID: PMC5131798. DOI: 10.1016/j.cell.2016.10.043. Abstract. Despite the accepted health benefits of consuming dietary fiber, little is known about the mechanisms by which fiber deprivation impacts the gut microbiota and alters disease risk.

A Synthetic Human Gut Microbiota with Versatile Fiber Polysaccharide Degrading Capacity. Diet changes are known to rapidly affect the composition of the microbiota in humans and rodents (David et al., 2014; Faith et al., 2011; McNulty et al., 2013; Rey et al., 2013).

Thus, the physiology of the gut microbiota is geared toward dietary polysaccharide metabolism. At present, relatively little is known about how a fiber-deprived gut microbiota fulfils its energy demands and how low fiber-induced microbiota changes impact our health.

Nov 17, 2016 · PMID: 27863236. DOI: 10.1016/j.cell.2016.10.047. Abstract. In this issue of Cell, Desai et al. compare how dietary fiber affects the gut microbiota and susceptibility to disease. They find that a fiber-free diet promotes mucus-degrading bacteria and susceptibility to Citrobacter rodentium infection. Copyright © 2016 Elsevier Inc.
