Gut microbiome-metabolome interactions during varied low-carbohydrate food consumption.

Low-carbohydrate (LC) foods have been associated with weight loss, insulin resistance, and reduced inflammation. Gut microbes may drive these effects by changing the host's immune and metabolic state, yet the optimal replacement strategies (e.g., protein vs. fat) and the biochemical impacts are still uncertain. Thus, w...

Digestion-resistant proteins support the healthy metabolite profiles associated with plant-based diets.

It is shown that fiber and digestion-resistant protein work in concert to shift the phenol profile by altering gut microbiome nutrient supply, and digestion-resistant plant protein modulates microbiome metabolism and, together with fiber, supports healthy metabolite profiles associated with plant-based diets.

Sucrose-free low-fat diet induces metabolic dysfunction through gut dysbiosis and colonic inflammation in mice

It is suggested that sucrose elimination from a low-fat diet disrupts gut microbiota, impairs metabolic homeostasis, and promotes gut and liver inflammation, revealing an unrecognized dietary trigger of metabolic dysfunction.
