Single, but not mixed dietary fibers suppress body weight gain and adiposity in high fat-fed mice by Swang M. Shallangwa, Alexander W. Ross, Peter J. Morgan

“…Mechanistically it is likely that the single 10% fiber dose shifted selected bacteria above some threshold abundance, required to suppress body weight, which was not achieved by the 10% Mix, composed of 4 fibers each at 2.5%. Plasma levels of the gut hormone PYY were elevated by 10% pectin and FOS, but not 10% mixed fibers, and similarly RNA seq revealed some distinct effects of the 10% single fibers on gut epithelial gene expression. …”
