Prebiotics May Prolong Life

April 24, 2008: 12:00 AM EST
Rats fed prebiotics over their lifetime have lower body weight and blood lipid levels and live longer than their counterparts, say researchers at ETAP (Applied Ethology and the Universite Henri Poincare Nancy I). The rats were fed a diet including inulin and oligofructose. Prebiotics are a burgeoning market in Europe. Repeating the study in humans could be a problem because of the difficulty people have in sticking to a diet.
