| Core Tip |
This randomized clinical study assessed the efficacy of the prebiotic UG1601 in suppressing constipation-related adverse events in subjects with mild constipation. Forty adults with a stool frequency of less than thrice a week were received either prebiotics or placebo supplements for 4 wk. Serum endotoxemia markers were decreased and Roseburia hominis, a major butyrate producer was increased after prebiotic usage. The abundance of Firmicutes was deceased in the responders within the prebiotic group representing the inverse associations with several fecal short-chain fatty acids. Thus, alterations in gut microbiota composition following prebiotic UG1601 supplementation might contribute to alleviation of symptom scores and endotoxemia. |
