Impact of polyunsaturated fatty acids, lipid oxidation products, haem-Fe and nitrite salt in muscle foods on oxidative stress and the colon microbiome in rats. Ghent University
Red meat and fish are widely consumed, nutritious muscle-based foods with, however, opposing
epidemiologic associations with a range of chronic diseases. The underlying mechanisms are not
yet elucidated, but it is assumed that oxidative stress and alterations in the colon microbial
communities interfere. Previously, we showed through simulations of meat and fish
gastrointestinal digestion, that the fatty acid profile, ...
