Intestinal short chain fatty acids and their link with diet and human health
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016 The colon is inhabited by a dense population of microorganisms, the so-called gut microbiota, able to ferment carbohydrates and proteins that escape absorption in the small intestine during digestion. This microbiota produces a wide range of metabolites,
