Article Synopsis
- Whole grains, particularly whole-grain corn and corn bran, are linked to better heart health and metabolic regulation, making their impact on gut microbiota an important research focus.
- In a study with 36 adults having high LDL cholesterol, participants consumed three types of corn flour over four weeks, with findings showing that only a blend of refined corn meal and corn bran significantly lowered LDL cholesterol levels.
- While no major changes were observed in gut microbiota diversity, some differences in specific genera were noted, indicating individualized responses to the different corn flour types consumed.
