摘要

Abstract

Fruits and vegetables are an important part of daily diet

rich in nutrients

with dietary fiber being an essential nutrient for the human body. Recently

continuous research confirmed that nutritional components of fruits and vegetables are realized through interaction with the intestinal microbiota. Dietary fiber from fruits and vegetables not only effectively promotes bowel movements and reduces the transit time of food through the intestines

but also promotes the growth and development of intestinal flora

helps maintain the diversity of intestinal flora

regulates the balance of intestinal flora

and enhances the body's immunity. In addition

dietary fiber fermented by the gut microbiota can produce important microbial metabolites

such as short-chain fatty acids

butyrate

acetate

etc.

which can promote overall human health. This article focuses on analyzing the effects of fruit and vegetable dietary fiber on changing the composition of gut microbiota

maintaining gut microbiota diversity

and producing important microbial metabolites

providing insights for further rational diet and development of fruit and vegetable dietary fiber.
