Binding of Steroid Hormones In Vitro by Water-Insoluble Dietary Fiber
… hulls) and purified (e.g., cellulose, lignin) fiber components. To explore this relationship further, we assessed the in vitro binding of estrone, estradiol-17β, and testosterone to a water-insoluble fiber fraction obtained from composite food samples of 18 Seventh-day Adventist (SDA) …

Plasma total cholesterol and triglyceride responses of hamsters fed oat bran and pinto bean diets
… diets, the hypercholesterolemic control (HC), an insoluble fiber (alphacel) control (FC), the oat bran (OB), or the pinto bean (PB) diet for three weeks, with the latter three containing 8.5%, 10.0%, and 7.6%, total dietary fiber, respectively. Plasma TC and TG were measured for each animal before …

Studies of high-fiber foods: I. The effect of a pinto bean diet on plasma cholesterol in hamsters. II. The effect of freeze-drying and heating during analysis on dietary fiber in cooked and raw carrots
… was investigated. The legume diet had 8.1% total fiber (1.0% soluble, 7.1% insoluble), all from pinto beans. Animals initially consumed a hypercholesterolemia-inducing diet. One control group remained on this feed for the duration of the study, and another consumed a diet with 8.6% total fiber …

Fermentable Carbohydrate Substrates Generated from Cereal and Pseudocereal Insoluble Dietary Fibers and Their In Vitro Fecal Fermentation
Dietary fiber has gained an increasing attention in recent years due to the myriad of health benefits attributed to it. The majority of these arise from their fermentative properties and their effects on gut microbiota. Cereals and pseudocereals are important sources of insoluble dietary fibers …

Investigating the influence of dietary fiber source and multicarbohydrase supplementation on digestibility, energy, systemic health, water balance, and gut motility in gestating sows
… in gestating sows fed soluble and insoluble fiber diets typical to U.S. production. A total of 36 confirmed gestating sows (186 ± 4.6 kg BW) were blocked by parity randomly assigned to 1 of 4 diets (n=9) in a 2×2 factorial arrangement of treatments on d 28 of gestation. Factors …

Mechanistic insight into the role of dietary fibers and short chain fatty acids in the regulation of metabolism and inflammation in the pig
<p>Dietary fiber is a diverse mixture of polysaccharides exerting multiple functions as it passes through the gastrointestinal tract (GIT). Besides the influence on nutrient digestibility, dietary fiber affects growth performance and host metabolism via modulation of gut microbial community …

Impact of dietary fiber and exogenous carbohydrases in weaned pigs
<p>Due to the potential benefits of dietary fiber on gut health, interest in the use of higher-fiber coproducts in weaned pig diets has been growing. Young pigs are not efficient at utilizing dietary fiber. To maximize the nutritional value of fibrous coproducts and mitigate their potential …

Effects of Bran Content, Thermal Treatment, and Storage on Flavor Development and Functionality in Intermediate Wheatgrass Flour
… would be at the expense of reducing the dietary fiber content. Understanding the storage stability of IWG and identifying methods to improve its stability will not only enhance commercialization potential, but will also incentivize farmers to plant IWG. The objectives for this research study were …

Nutrition and the GI microbiota in children with autism spectrum disorder and impact on symptom severity
… variety and decreased nutrient intake (e.g., fiber). Diet is one of the major determinants of the GI microbiota; however, previous studies have not systematically investigated the role of diet in shaping the GI microbiota in children with ASD. Likewise, overall microbial stability is …

Effects of distillers dried grains with solubles and dietary fiber on the intestinal health of young pigs and chicks
… research was to determine the value of dietary fiber (DF) from distillers dried grains with solubles (DDGS) on the promotion of intestinal health in young pigs and chicks. Furthermore, purified sources of DF were used in pigs to elucidate whether the soluble or insoluble fraction of DF, or its …
