This project investigates how dietary glycans are metabolized by gut microbes, aiming to enhance beneficial microbial populations through targeted dietary strategies. By leveraging genomic data, it seeks to develop innovative prebiotic and probiotic solutions to improve human health.
The large bowel is colonized by a community of microbes, the microbiota, which has a significant impact on human health and nutrition.
The major nutrients available to these organisms are dietary glycans.
Thus, glycan-based dietary and nutraceutical strategies can, potentially, be deployed to encourage the dominance of beneficial microbes within the microbiota, ensuring the microbial ecosystem has a positive influence on human health.
This approach, however, is greatly restricted by a critical l…
