Abstract
The effect of gluten-free diet (GFD) and chitosan was evaluated in healthy individuals; GFD remarkably influenced the structure of the gut bacterial population and its metabolism. Administration of GFD and chitosan (3 g daily) significantly changed composition and metabolism of the bacterial population. Chitosan stimulated the counts of fecal chitinolytic bacteria and decreased the body mass of treated persons.Entities:
