Immunomodulatory and Prebiotic Activities of White Oat β-glucans (Avena sativa L.) and the Potential for a Food-base Ecofriendly Therapy
Abstract: Intestinal health is an important sanitary factor for animals and humans and is closely related to the microbiota population of the gastrointestinal tract. Correlated to this fact is the diet that is consumed, which is fundamental for the development and proliferation of ‘beneficial’ bacteria. Modulation of the intestinal microbiota can be achieved by the prebiotic activity of some polysaccharides, which are fermented by these bacteria after being able to pass …
