Short chain fatty acids (SCFAs) are the products of colonic bacterial degradation of unabsorbed starch and non-starch polysaccharide (fibre). They are important anions in the colonic lumen, affecting ...

Gut microbes break down dietary fibre into short-chain fatty acids that travel through the body, influencing various biological processes. While their general health benefits were known ...

Monash University researchers have revealed how the gut—and what we eat—regulates high blood pressure, opening the door to ...

Inside our digestive system lives a bustling community of trillions of bacteria that help break down the food we eat. These microscopic helpers produce various compounds, including short-chain fatty ...

A recent study from Stanford Medicine reveals that a high-fiber diet can significantly reduce the risk of certain cancers due to the anti-cancer properties of short-chain fatty acids produced ...

Scientists have discovered that juvenile bottlenose dolphins have specialized receptors for detecting the fatty acids in their mother's milk. These findings, published in the journal Marine Mammal ...
