A new issue of Nutrients updates the role diet plays in manipulating gut functions in health and disease – Gut Microbiota for Health

Our digestive tract has a major impact not only on digestion, absorption and defense, but also on satiation and fullness after ingesting a meal. It therefore seems reasonable that the food we eat is a major modulator of gastrointestinal health, through the gut microbiota.

In normal conditions, free of any digestive complaints, food intake can have a pleasurable dimension. However, a large proportion of the general population presents digestive symptoms, with no detectable abnormalities using conventional diagnostic methods.

Given the importance of getting a better understanding of factors that determine digestive sensations when managing functional gut disorders, we have published a series of 6 posts on behalf of the special issue entitled Food and Diet for Gut Function and Dysfunction, which was recently launched in the peer reviewed open access journal Nutrients. This issue was instigated by the European Society of Neurogastroenterology and Motility, guest edited by Profs Fernando Azpiroz and Paul Enck, and made possible through an unrestricted educational grant from Danone.

The research and review articles covered include:

Meal residues entering the colon are metabolized by the gut microbiota and may lead to functional digestive symptoms in the general population. New research shows that probiotics may help improve the tolerance of a plant-based flatulogenic diet.

Major insights have been gained into the response of our gut to meal-related stimuli. However, the investigatory techniques available are scarce and cannot be applied for the whole range of foods.
