Polyethylene glycol, unique among laxatives, suppresses aberrant crypt foci, by elimination of cells. [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: Polyethylene glycol (PEG), an osmotic laxative, is a potent inhibitor of colon cancer in rats. In a search for the underling mechanisms, the hypothesis that fecal bulking and moisture decrease colon carcinogenesis was tested.

Effects of Natural Polysaccharides on the Gut Microbiota Related to Human Metabolic Health
The graphical abstract illustrates the role of polysaccharides extracted from various natural raw materials (such as mushrooms, marine organisms, fruits, and vegetables) in modulating the gut microbiota. The process begins with the extraction and purification of polysaccharides, followed by assessing their structure‐activity relationship. Upon entering
