The Anti‐Constipation Effect of Garlic Polysaccharides: Roles of Gut Barrier Integrity, VIP Pathway, and the Microbiota‐SCFAs Axis

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.
Garlic polysaccharides (GP) demonstrated potential against functional constipation. In vitro, GP exhibited digestive resistance properties and boosted beneficial Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus. In constipated mice, GP alleviated constipation by reducing oxidative stress and repairing the mechanical, chemical, and immune barriers.

Loss of function of 1-FEH IIb has more impact on post-harvest inulin degradation in Cichorium intybus than copy number variation of its close paralog 1-FEH IIa.

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2015
Inulin polyfructan is the second most abundant storage carbohydrate in flowering plants. After harvest, it is depolymerized by fructan exohydrolases (FEHs) as an adaptive response to end-season cold temperatures.
