Nondigestibility characteristics of inulin and oligofructose in humans.

چکیده
The ileostomy model is considered to be a reliable model to reflect small bowel absorption. Studies in ileostomy subjects have shown that inulin and oligofructose pass through the small bowel without degradation and without influencing the absorption of nitrogen, fat, starch, calcium, magnesium or zinc. Inulin and oligofructose do not have any considerable effect on cholesterol absorption or bile acid excretion.

The Effect of Oligofructose, Lactulose and Inulin Mixture as Prebiotic on Physicochemical Properties of Synbiotic Yogurt
Desirability and good background of yogurt have led the manufacturers to use this product mostly for producing milk-based probiotic products. The aim of this study was to evalutate the effect of a mixture of prebiotics including oligofructose, lactulose, and inulin on physicochemical properties (pH value, acidity, and syneresis) of synbiotic yogurt containing lactobacillus casei. Pasteurized mi...
متن کاملNon-digestible oligosaccharides and calcium absorption in girls with adequate calcium intakes.
Non-digestible oligosaccharides such as inulin and oligofructose have been shown to consistently increase calcium absorption in experimental animals, but data in humans are less clear-cut. The objective of this study was to assess the effect of 8 g/d of oligofructose or a mixture of inulin and oligofructose on calcium absorption in girls at or near menarche. A total of fifty-nine subjects were ...
متن کاملTechnological functionality of inulin and oligofructose.
Inulin and oligofructose are functional food ingredients which offer a unique combination of nutritional properties and important technological benefits. They are found in many vegetables and fruits and can be industrially obtained from chicory roots.

متن کاملInulin and oligofructose in the dietary fibre concept.
Dietary fibre consists of remnants of edible plant cell polysaccharides and associated substances resistant to hydrolysis by human alimentary enzymes, which may benefit health through a wide range of physiological effects. Inulin and oligofructose are storage carbohydrates found in a number of vegetables, fruits and whole grains. They resist digestion and absorption in the stomach and small int...
متن کاملAn Investigation of the Acute Effects of Oligofructose-Enriched Inulin on Subjective Wellbeing, Mood and Cognitive Performance
Inulin is a natural food component found in many plants that are part of the human diet (e.g., leeks, onions, wheat, garlic, chicory and artichokes). It is added to many foods and is used to increase dietary fibre, replace fats or carbohydrates, and as a prebiotic (a stimulant of beneficial bacteria in the colon). Oligofructose, which is also present in these foods, produces similar effects and...
