Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Jessica Van Harsselaar"

  • - Jessica van Harsselaar's recent research primarily investigates the effects of prebiotic compounds, specifically inulin-type fructans and 2'fucosyllactose, on gut microbiota composition and mood states within working populations, as evidenced by her randomized controlled trial, the EFFICAD Trial.
  • - Her work also explores the synergistic impact of combining different prebiotics, such as inulin-type fructans, 2'fucosyllactose, and β-glucan from barley, on microbial profiles and short-chain fatty acid production through in vitro studies.
  • - Additionally, she has conducted systematic reviews assessing how chicory-derived inulin-type fructans influence beneficial gut microorganisms and related health outcomes, highlighting the variability in effects based on the source and structure of these compounds.
