Short-Chain Fatty Acids (SCFAs)

FiberSweet is a digestive resistant soluble fiber that impacts the gut microbiome and, through it, lung health. When gut bacteria ferment FiberSweet, they produce short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) such as acetate, propionate, and butyrate. These metabolites enter systemic circulation and affect the lungs by regulating immune cells, reducing inflammation, and promoting an anti-inflammatory environment. In…

FiberSweet and Respiratory Viral Infections: Supporting Immune Defense Against the Flu and COVID-19 FiberSweet—a synergistic blend of Ayurvedic-inspired digestive resistant soluble fiber and the probiotic Bacillus coagulans MTCC 5856—supports respiratory health by modulating the gut-lung axis, a critical communication pathway linking gut microbial communities, their metabolites, and lung immune function. FiberSweet and Immune Protection from…

Gut-derived metabolites that correlate with lung outcomes in the context of FiberSweet, a digestive resistant soluble fiber, primarily include the following: Overall, the SCFA profile derived from FiberSweet fermentation stands as the central beneficial mediator positively correlating with improved lung immune balance and reduced inflammation, while metabolites like l-tryptophan may serve as biomarkers or mediators of lung pathology in…
