Interest of inulin in obesity: comparison of the prebiotic effect of edible-food sources versus purified inulin from chicory root
Differences occur between natural edible versus isolated sources of ITF. Both sources of inulin shifted the gut microbiota, but differently affected intestinal and lipid homeostasis. This study highlights the importance of food matrix and origins of fructans for their use in the context of metabolic disorders.
