For the study, the research team fed mice with a high-fat Western diet for 17 weeks. They then divide two groups who were fed the same diet enriched with 10 per cent of either oat or rye bran. This study especially focused on the gut microbial metabolites relevant to the development of fatty liver disease, which is often linked to obesity. The microbial metabolites were assessed by measuring cecal short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), ileal and faecal bile acids, and the expression of genes related to tryptophan metabolism.

The researchers found that both bran fibres enhanced the production of SCFAs, which improved gut integrity, and reduced liver inflammation. Moreover, both oat and rye supplementation was found to reduce weight gain associated with a high-fat diet, the researchers noted.

For years, grains have been a major part of our diet. But high intake of refined grains has been shown to cause health problems like obesity and inflammation. So, opt for whole grains, which can provide multiple health benefits. Whole grains are high in fiber, vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and protein. It is the bran the hard, outer shell that provides most of the fiber in whole grains.

Eating whole grains is associated with various benefits, including a lower risk of obesity, diabetes, heart disease, and high blood pressure. The fiber in whole grains can improve digestion by giving bulk to stools as well as a lower risk of constipation. Some researches have also suggested that whole grains can prevent cancer. Whole grains strongest anticancer benefits are seen against colorectal cancer, one of the most common types of cancer.

You can add whole grains to your diet in many ways. You make a cooked porridge out of oatmeal or other grains, sprinkle toasted buckwheat groats on yogurt, make polenta out of whole-grain cornmeal, add barley to vegetable soups, etc.
