Screening of lactases suitable for the preparation of low-lactose prebiotic liquid milk and optimisation of their combination

Acta Universitatis Cibiniensis. Series E: Food Technology, 2021
Lactose intolerance is an important factor restricting the consumption of dairy products. Lactase is used to hydrolyze lactose in milk while generating galactooligosaccharides (GOS), thereby reducing the incidence of lactose intolerance. We used cow milk

Genetic analysis of congenital and adult-onset lactose intolerance points to anti-inflammatory effects of dairy products

BMJ Nutrition, Prevention & Health
Objective Dairy intake has been reported to be both pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory; this inconsistency has led to uncertainty in the field. We aimed to address this using genetic data to perform a causal analysis of the link between lactose ...

Daily Lactose Supplementation in Lactase Non-Persistent Individuals Induces Colonic Adaptation and Reduces Intolerance Symptoms

Proceedings, 2023
Background and objectives: Globally, about 70% of the adult population is lactase non-persistent (LNP), lacking the enzyme required for lactose digestion.

Identification and Biological Characterization of a Novel NRF2 Activator Molecule Released From the Membranes of Heat‐Treated Bifidobacterium breve NCC 2950

Molecular Nutrition &Food Research, EarlyView.
We have shed light on the mode of action behind the postbiotic form of Bifidobacterium breve NCC 2950. Heat treatment of this strain at 90°C leads to the production of 4‐oxo‐2‐pentenoic acid (OPA), which activates NRF2 host response, improving oxidative stress resistance and decreasing inflammation. ABSTRACT Postbiotics are defined as a “preparation of

Lactase Deficiency and Lactose Intolerance: Current Understanding and Future Directions

Journal of Education, Health and Sport
Introduction and purpose: Lactose, the primary carbohydrate in milk, requires the enzyme lactase for digestion. Deficiency in lactase activity leads to lactose intolerance, causing gastrointestinal symptoms.

Impact of Acute and Sub‐Acute Gluten Exposure on Gastrointestinal Symptoms and Psychological Responses in Non‐Coeliac Gluten Sensitivity: A Randomised Crossover Study

United European Gastroenterology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background/Aims Non‐coeliac gluten sensitivity (NCGS) is a controversial entity, characterised by symptom improvement with gluten exclusion in the absence of coeliac disease. We primarily investigated the effects of acute and sub‐acute gluten on psychological and mood profiles, with secondary outcomes examining gastrointestinal symptoms and ...

The effect of blended tube feeding compared to conventional formula on clinical outcomes in adults: A systematic review

Nutrition &Dietetics, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim To explore the effect of blended tube feeding compared to conventional formulas on nutritional status, quality of life, anthropometry, diarrhoea and tube blockages in adults receiving tube feeding. Methods The protocol was registered (PROSPERO CRD42022372443).

Systematic Multi‐Trait Study of Genetic Correlation and Causality Relationships Between General Medical Conditions and Mental Disorders

Acta Psychiatrica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Increasing evidence has highlighted bidirectional associations between mental disorders and general medical conditions, with underlying causes ranging from lifestyle habits and side effects from medications to genetic contributions. Novel methods now provide a way to estimate the shared genetic underpinnings and the possibility of

The molecular basis of lactase persistence: Linking genetics and epigenetics

Annals of Human Genetics, EarlyView.
Abstract Lactase persistence (LP) — the genetic trait that determines the continued expression of the enzyme lactase into adulthood — has undergone recent, rapid positive selection since the advent of animal domestication and dairying in some human populations.

Fructose and/or Sorbitol Intolerance in a Subgroup of Lactose Intolerant Patients

Canadian Journal of Gastroenterology, 1994
The diagnosis and treatment of lactose intolerance often does not resolve all the symptoms of postcibal bloating and flatulence. Included in this study were 104 lactose intolerant patients (71 female, 33 male) who complained of residual postcibal ...
