Abstract
Brassica vegetables contain unique compounds known as glucosinolates (GSLs), which, when hydrolyzed by plant or microbial myrosinase, form bioactive isothiocyanates (ITCs) that offer health benefits to the host. The present study evaluated the impact of cooked broccoli (broccoli myrosinase inactivated) consumption on cecal microbial metabolism of glucoraphanin (GRP) in lean and obese mice and characterized the changes in cecal microbiota following broccoli-containing diets.
期刊介绍:
Molecular Nutrition & Food Research is a primary research journal devoted to health, safety and all aspects of molecular nutrition such as nutritional biochemistry, nutrigenomics and metabolomics aiming to link the information arising from related disciplines:
Bioactivity: Nutritional and medical effects of food constituents including bioavailability and kinetics.
Immunology: Understanding the interactions of food and the immune system.
Microbiology: Food spoilage, food pathogens, chemical and physical approaches of fermented foods and novel microbial processes.
Chemistry: Isolation and analysis of bioactive food ingredients while considering environmental aspects.
