Metabolism of Nutrients by Gut Microbiota (Food Chemistry, Function and Analysis, Volume 34) (Original PDF from Publisher)

Metabolism of Nutrients by Gut Microbiota

The present level of knowledge from authority precisely on how diet influences microbial function with metabolic implications for the human host is compiled in this book, which brings together specialist researchers in the domains of microbiome, metabolism, and nutrition research. In addition to later clinical chapters covering subjects like bariatric surgery and our current understanding of probiotics, prebiotics, and synbiotics, the chapters cover the broad concepts of microbial-host interactions under the dietary influences of specific macronutrients, micronutrients, small molecule generation, and bile acid circulation.

The book addresses a current issue from a practical perspective, addressing a gap in the literature. It will be crucial to highlight new functional and mechanistic research discoveries that show the inner workings of the dietary-microbial-host orchestration of metabolic control, even as descriptive work receives more attention. In addition to summarizing the significance of contemporary microbial function, it will outline the main avenues for future study on the microbiome.
