Abstract
Over the past two decades, whole food supplementation strategies have been leveraged to target mental health. In addition, there has been increasing attention on the ability of gut microbes, so called psychobiotics, to positively impact behaviour though the microbiota-gut-brain axis. Fermented foods offer themselves as a combined whole food microbiota modulating intervention. Indeed, they contain potentially beneficial microbes, microbial metabolites and other bioactives, which are being harnessed to target the microbiota-gut-brain axis for positive benefits. This review highlights the diverse nature of fermented foods in terms of the raw materials used and type of fermentation employed, and summarises their potential to shape composition of the gut microbiota, the gut to brain communication pathways including the immune system and, ultimately, modulate the microbiota-gut-brain axis. Throughout, we identify knowledge gaps and challenges faced in designing human studies for investigating the mental health-promoting potential of individual fermented foods or components thereof. Importantly, we also suggest solutions that can advance understanding of the therapeutic merit of fermented foods to modulate the microbiota-gut-brain axis.

Tailor-made fermentation of sourdough reduces the acrylamide content in rye crispbread and improves its sensory and nutritional characteristics. Int J Food Microbiol 2024; 410:110513. [PMID: 38043376 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijfoodmicro.2023.110513] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/02/2023] [Revised: 10/13/2023] [Accepted: 11/29/2023] [Indexed: 12/05/2023]
Abstract
Thirty strains of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) and Saccharomyces cerevisiae E8.9 (wild type) were used to formulate fifteen combinations of starters by mixing two or three LAB with the yeast (ratio LAB: yeast, 10: 1). Such combinations were used to prepare rye sourdough and their performance in term of acidification and biochemical characteristics during fermentation at two temperatures (30 and 37 °C) and duration (4 and 8 h) were screened. The best thirteen sourdough formulations were selected and used for rye crispbread making. The analysis of acrylamide concentration demonstrated that 11 out 13 formulations resulted in significant decreases of concentration compared to the baker's yeast (control), with reductions up to 79.6 %. The rye sourdough crispbreads showed also higher amount of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) compared to the baker's yeast control. Two rye sourdough crispbreads, selected to represent the opposite extremes within the thirteen formulations in term of VOC profiles and fermentation performances, demonstrated better sensory and nutritional features, such as phytic acid reduction (up to 47.3 %), and enhanced total free amino acid compared to the control. These evidences suggest the potential of tailored sourdough fermentations as alternative and suitable biotechnological strategy for lowering acrylamide levels in rye crispbread.

Abstract
During the last decade, scientific interest in and consumer attention to sourdough fermentation in bread making has increased. On the one hand, this technology may favorably impact product quality, including flavor and shelf-life of bakery products; on the other hand, some cereal components, especially in wheat and rye, which are known to cause adverse reactions in a small subset of the population, can be partially modified or degraded. The latter potentially reduces their harmful effects, but depends strongly on the composition of sourdough microbiota, processing conditions and the resulting acidification. Tolerability, nutritional composition, potential health effects and consumer acceptance of sourdough bread are often suggested to be superior compared to yeast-leavened bread. However, the advantages of sourdough fermentation claimed in many publications rely mostly on data from chemical and in vitro analyzes, which raises questions about the actual impact on human nutrition. This review focuses on grain components, which may cause adverse effects in humans and the effect of sourdough microbiota on their structure, quantity and biological properties. Furthermore, presumed benefits of secondary metabolites and reduction of contaminants are discussed. The benefits claimed deriving from in vitro and in vivo experiments will be evaluated across a broader spectrum in terms of clinically relevant effects on human health. Accordingly, this critical review aims to contribute to a better understanding of the extent to which sourdough bread may result in measurable health benefits in humans.

Acute Effects of Dietary Fiber in Starchy Foods on Glycemic and Insulinemic Responses: A Systematic Review of Randomized Controlled Crossover Trials. Nutrients 2023; 15:nu15102383. [PMID: 37242267 DOI: 10.3390/nu15102383] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/28/2023] [Revised: 05/11/2023] [Accepted: 05/17/2023] [Indexed: 05/28/2023] Open
Abstract
Dietary fiber (DF) consumption has been associated with improved glycemic control in epidemiological and long-term interventional studies. However, its acute effects are not yet clear. This systematic review aims to elucidate the postprandial effects of DF in starchy products on glycemia and insulinemia. An electronic search of databases was conducted, and forty-one records met the inclusion criteria and underwent a risk-of-bias assessment. It was shown that soluble DF does not clearly affect glycemia in individuals with normal weight, while resistant starch may be more effective in flattening glycemic responses. Concerning insulinemia, both soluble DF and resistant starch have mixed results, with either favorable or no effects. Data on insoluble DF and glucose metabolism are scarce. The same mixed results for glycemia can be seen in healthy volunteers with overweight/obesity, while resistant starch seems to improve insulinemic responses. Finally, more studies need to examine the acute effects of DF in starchy foods on glucose metabolism and insulin secretion in individuals facing glucose abnormalities. Additionally, more studies are needed to prove whether ingesting high-fiber carbohydrate-containing products per se can result in blunted glycemic and insulinemic responses and which DF type and amount are more effective.

Abstract
CONTEXT Whole grain intake may control help glycemia and reduce food intake by affecting the secretion of glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide (GIP). OBJECTIVE This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to assess the postprandial and long-term effects of whole grains on GLP-1 and GIP levels. DATA SOURCES PubMed, Web of Science, and Scopus online databases were searched systematically to identify relevant randomized clinical trials (RCTs) published up to April 2021. STUDY SELECTION RCTs that evaluated the effects of whole grains, compared with refined grains, on the postprandial area under the curve (AUC) value, the postprandial serum concentration of incretins from 0 to 180 minutes, or the fasting level of incretins after at least 14 days of intervention were included. RESULTS Nineteen studies were included in the meta-analysis. The results showed that acute intake of whole grains could not significantly change the AUC value of GLP-1 or GIP. However, the AUC value of GIP was reduced more significantly in (1) unhealthy participants (standard mean difference [SMD] -1.08; 95%CI, -2.07 to -0.10; I2 = 75.9%) compared with healthy participants, and (2) those with a baseline fasting blood glucose of ≥99 mg/dL (SMD -0.71; 95%CI, -1.30 to -0.11; I2 = 74.4%) compared with those with a baseline value of < 99 mg/dL. On the other hand, the results of time-response evaluation during 0 to 180 minutes after the intake of test meals showed that serum concentrations of GIP decreased significantly from 0 to 30 minutes (coefficient = -44.72; P = 0.005), but increased from 60 to 180 minutes (coefficient = 27.03; P = 0.005). However, long-term studies found no significant effects of whole grains on fasting concentrations of GLP-1 or GIP. CONCLUSION Whole grain intake did not affect postprandial levels of GLP-1 but enhanced postprandial levels of GIP from 60 to 180 minutes. Further high-quality trials are required to assess the long-term effects of whole grain intake on serum levels of incretins. SYSTEMATIC REVIEW REGISTRATION PROSPERO registration no. CRD42021256695.

Abstract
Food fermentation using sourdough-i.e., consortia of lactic bacteria and yeasts-is increasingly considered among the public as a natural transformation yielding nutritional benefits; however, it is unclear whether its alleged properties are validated by science. The aim of this study was to systematically review the clinical evidence related to the effect of sourdough bread on health. Bibliographic searches were performed in 2 different databases (The Lens and PubMed) up to February 2022. Eligible studies were randomized controlled trials involving adults, healthy or not, given any type of sourdough bread compared with those given any type of yeast bread. A total of 573 articles were retrieved and investigated, of which 25 clinical trials met the inclusion criteria. The 25 clinical trials included a total of 542 individuals. The main outcomes investigated in the retrieved studies were glucose response (N = 15), appetite (N = 3), gastrointestinal markers (N = 5), and cardiovascular markers (N = 2). Overall, it is currently difficult to establish a clear consensus with regards to the beneficial effects of sourdough per se on health when compared with other types of bread because a variety of factors, such as the microbial composition of sourdough, fermentation parameters, cereals, and flour types potentially influence the nutritional properties of bread. Nonetheless, in studies using specific strains and fermentation conditions, significant improvements were observed in parameters related to glycemic response, satiety, or gastrointestinal comfort after bread ingestion. The reviewed data suggest that sourdough has great potential to produce a variety of functional foods; however, its complex and dynamic ecosystem requires further standardization to conclude its clinical health benefits.

Abstract
According to cohort studies, cereal fiber, and whole-grain products might decrease risk for type 2 diabetes (T2DM), inflammatory processes, cancer, and cardiovascular diseases. These associations, mainly affect insoluble, but not soluble cereal fiber. In intervention studies, soluble fiber elicit anti-hyperglycemic and anti-inflammatory short-term effects, partially explained by fermentation to short-chain fatty acids, which acutely counteract insulin resistance and inflammation. ß-glucans lower cholesterol levels and possibly reduce liver fat. Long-term benefits are not yet shown, maybe caused by T2DM heterogeneity, as insulin resistance and fatty liver disease - the glycometabolic points of action of soluble cereal fiber - are not present in every patient. Thus, only some patients might be susceptive to fiber. Also, incretin action in response to fiber could be a relevant factor for variable effects. Thus, this review aims to summarize the current knowledge from human studies on the impact of soluble cereal fiber on glycometabolic gastrointestinal hormones. Effects on GLP-1 appear to be highly contradictory, while these fibers might lower GIP and ghrelin, and increase PYY and CCK. Even though previous results of specific trials support a glycometabolic benefit of soluble fiber, larger acute, and long-term mechanistic studies are needed in order to corroborate the results.

Role of lactic acid bacteria and yeasts in sourdough fermentation during breadmaking: Evaluation of postbiotic-like components and health benefits. Front Microbiol 2022; 13:969460.

Abstract
Sourdough (SD) fermentation is a traditional biotechnological process used to improve the properties of baked goods. Nowadays, SD fermentation is studied for its potential health effects due to the presence of postbiotic-like components, which refer to a group of inanimate microorganisms and/or their components that confer health benefits on the host. Some postbiotic-like components reported in SD are non-viable microorganisms, short-chain fatty acids, bacteriocins, biosurfactants, secreted proteins/peptides, amino acids, flavonoids, exopolysaccharides, and other molecules. Temperature, pH, fermentation time, and the composition of lactic acid bacteria and yeasts in SD can impact the nutritional and sensory properties of bread and the postbiotic-like effect. Many in vivo studies in humans have associated the consumption of SD bread with higher satiety, lower glycemic responses, increased postprandial concentrations of short-chain fatty acids, and improvement in the symptoms of metabolic or gastrointestinal-related diseases. This review highlights the role of bacteria and yeasts used for SD, the formation of postbiotic-like components affected by SD fermentation and the baking process, and the implications of functional SD bread intake for human health. There are few studies characterizing the stability and properties of postbiotic-like components after the baking process. Therefore, further research is necessary to develop SD bread with postbiotic-related health benefits.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to carry out a systematic review of clinical trials followed by meta-analysis, to evaluate the effect of sourdough bread on glycemic control and appetite and satiety regulators such as leptin, ghrelin, GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1), GLP-2 (glucagon-like peptide-2), NPY (neuropeptide Y), AgRP (agouti-related protein), PYY (peptide YY), and GIP (glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide). Clinical trials compared the intake of sourdough bread to that of an industrially fermented one or control glucose solution in adults over 18 years of age. This systematic review included all randomized, parallel, or crossover trials published up to June 2021 in the EMBASE, MEDLINE, Scopus, and Web of Science databases. After the selection process, 18 studies were included. The analysis of the final average difference of the change in serum glucose after 60 minutes for the intervention indicated that the consumption of sourdough bread has a lower impact on blood glucose compared to that of industrial bread or glucose (MD = -0.29, IC 95% = [-0.46; -0.12]; I2 = 0%). The evaluation of blood glucose 120 minutes after the consumption of the intervention also indicated a lower increment in blood glucose when compared to the consumption of other types of bread or the same amount of glucose (MD = -0.21, IC 95% = [-0.32; -0.09]; I2 = 0%). The certainty of evidence varied from low to very low. The results showed that sourdough is effective in reducing the increment of postprandial glycemia, especially when prepared with whole wheat flour, although it does not reduce fasting serum insulin, nor does it change plasma PYY.

Abstract
Consumption of whole grain has been associated with lower incidence of type-2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease and their risk factors including improved glycemic control. In comparison with other whole grain products, rye bread has been shown to induce lower insulin response in the postprandial phase, without affecting the glucose response. This phenomenon has been referred to as the “rye factor” and is being explored in this review where we summarize the findings from meal and extended meal studies including rye-based foods. Overall, results from intervention studies showed that rye-based foods vs. (wheat) control foods had positive effect on both insulin and glucose responses in the postprandial phase, rather than on insulin alone. Mechanistic studies have shown that the rye factor phenomenon might be due to slowing of the glucose uptake in the intestine. However, this has also been shown for wheat-based bread and is likely an effect of structural properties of the investigated foods rather than the rye per se. More carefully controlled studies where standardized structural properties of different cereals are linked to the postprandial response are needed to further elucidate the underlying mechanisms and determinants for the effect of specific cereals and product traits on postprandial glycemic control.

Abstract
Urbanization, emergence, and prominence of diseases and ailments have led to conscious and deliberate consumption of health beneficial foods. Whole grain (WG) cereals are one type of food with an array of nutritionally important and healthy constituents, including carotenoids, inulin, β-glucan, lignans, vitamin E-related compounds, tocols, phytosterols, and phenolic compounds, which are beneficial for human consumption. They not only provide nutrition, but also confer health promoting effects in food, such as anti-carcinogenic, anti-microbial, and antioxidant properties. Fermentation is a viable processing technique to transform whole grains in edible foods since it is an affordable, less complicated technique, which not only transforms whole grains but also increases nutrient bioavailability and positively alters the levels of health-promoting components (particularly antioxidants) in derived whole grain products. This review addresses the impact of fermentation on phenolic compounds and antioxidant activities with most available studies indicating an increase in these health beneficial constituents. Such increases are mostly due to breakdown of the cereal cell wall and subsequent activities of enzymes that lead to the liberation of bound phenolic compounds, which increase antioxidant activities. In addition to the improvement of these valuable constituents, increasing the consumption of fermented whole grain cereals would be vital for the world's ever-growing population. Concerted efforts and adequate strategic synergy between concerned stakeholders (researchers, food industry, and government/policy makers) are still required in this regard to encourage consumption and dispel negative presumptions about whole grain foods.

Abstract
MOTIVATION Validation of variable selection and predictive performance is crucial in construction of robust multivariate models that generalize well, minimize overfitting and facilitate interpretation of results. Inappropriate variable selection leads instead to selection bias, thereby increasing the risk of model overfitting and false positive discoveries. Although several algorithms exist to identify a minimal set of most informative variables (i.e. the minimal-optimal problem), few can select all variables related to the research question (i.e. the all-relevant problem). Robust algorithms combining identification of both minimal-optimal and all-relevant variables with proper cross-validation are urgently needed. RESULTS We developed the MUVR algorithm to improve predictive performance and minimize overfitting and false positives in multivariate analysis. In the MUVR algorithm, minimal variable selection is achieved by performing recursive variable elimination in a repeated double cross-validation (rdCV) procedure. The algorithm supports partial least squares and random forest modelling, and simultaneously identifies minimal-optimal and all-relevant variable sets for regression, classification and multilevel analyses. Using three authentic omics datasets, MUVR yielded parsimonious models with minimal overfitting and improved model performance compared with state-of-the-art rdCV. Moreover, MUVR showed advantages over other variable selection algorithms, i.e. Boruta and VSURF, including simultaneous variable selection and validation scheme and wider applicability. AVAILABILITY AND IMPLEMENTATION Algorithms, data, scripts and tutorial are open source and available as an R package ('MUVR') at https://gitlab.com/CarlBrunius/MUVR.git. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION Supplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.
