Abstract Background Increasing dietary fiber intake in children may improve overall diet quality. The purpose of this study was to compare nutrient intakes and sources of fiber between young children with low and high fiber intakes utilizing data from the Feeding Infants and Toddlers Study (FITS) 2016. Methods The FITS 2016 was a nationwide, cross sectional survey of caregivers designed to assess food and nutrient intakes, feeding behaviors, and dietary patterns among infants and young children living in the U.S. Energy adjusted macro and micronutrient intakes (nutrients/1000 kcals) of children with energy adjusted fiber intakes (g/1000 kcals) in the highest quartile were compared to those in the lowest quartile with paired t-tests. Sources of fiber for each quartile were ranked according to percent of total fiber intake. Results Children with fiber intakes in the highest quartile had significantly lower intakes of total fat (mean difference ranged from 7.4–9.6 g, p < 0.0005) and saturated fat (mean difference ranged from 4 to 5.8 g, p < 0.0005), and significantly higher intakes of vitamin B-6 (mean difference ranged from 0.3–0.4 mg, p < 0.0005), magnesium (mean difference ranged from 57.2–61.8 mg, p < 0.0005), iron (mean difference ranged from 2.2–3.7 mg, p < 0.0005), and potassium (mean difference ranged from 318.2 mg to 446.1 mg, p < 0.0005) compared to children in the lowest quartile across all age groups. Children in the highest quartile had higher intakes of nut butters, legumes, fruits, and vegetables and consumed a greater percentage of grains as whole grains than those in the lowest quartile. Conclusion Encouraging intake of fruits, vegetables, legumes, nut butters, and at least 75% of grains as whole grains may help young children improve dietary fiber intake and overall diet quality.

(1) Background: Our previous study found that the dietary fiber supplement in patients with hypertension increased SCFA-producers, Bififidobacterium and Spirillum in the gut microbiota, which may be associated with improvement of depression and anxiety through the gut–brain axis. However, only a few studies have explored the association between dietary fiber intake (DFI) and the incidence of depression and anxiety in hypertensive patients. (2) Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted in one comprehensive hospital and one community clinic aimed at understanding the status of DFI and the association between DFI and incidences of depression and anxiety in hypertensive patients. Levels of DFI were obtained through a two-24 h diet recall. According to the levels of DFI from low to high, the participants were divided into Q1, Q2, Q3 and Q4 groups. The Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System short form v1.0-Depression 8b and Anxiety 8a were used to assess patients’ levels of depression and anxiety. (3) Results: A total of 459 hypertensive patients were recruited and the daily DFI was 10.4 g. The incidences of hypertension combined with depression and anxiety were 19.6% and 18.5%, respectively. Regression analysis showed statistically significant associations between DFI and depression (B = −0.346, p = 0.001) and anxiety score (B = −0.565, p < 0.001). In logistic regression, after the covariates were adjusted, DFI was associated with the incidence of depression in Q3 (OR 2.641, 95% CI 1.050–6.640) and with that of anxiety in Q1 (OR 2.757, 95% CI 1.035–7.346), compared with Q4. (4) Conclusions: A higher consumption of DF was a protective factor for depression and anxiety in hypertensive patients.

AbstractThe gut microbiome has been speculated to modulate feeding behavior through multiple factors, including short-chain fatty acids (SCFA). Evidence on this relationship in humans is however lacking. We aimed to explore if specific bacterial genera relate to eating behavior, diet, and SCFA in adults. Moreover, we tested whether eating-related microbiota relate to treatment success in patients after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB). Anthropometrics, dietary fiber intake, eating behavior, 16S-rRNA-derived microbiota, and fecal and serum SCFA were correlated in young overweight adults (n = 27 (9 F), 21–36 years, BMI 25–31 kg/m2). Correlated genera were compared in RYGB (n = 23 (16 F), 41–70 years, BMI 25–62 kg/m2) and control patients (n = 17 (11 F), 26–69 years, BMI 25–48 kg/m2). In young adults, 7 bacteria genera, i.e., Alistipes, Blautia, Clostridiales cluster XVIII, Gemmiger, Roseburia, Ruminococcus, and Streptococcus, correlated with healthier eating behavior, while 5 genera, i.e., Clostridiales cluster IV and XIVb, Collinsella, Fusicatenibacter, and Parabacteroides, correlated with unhealthier eating (all | r | > 0.4, FDR-corrected p < 0.05). Some of these genera including Parabacteroides related to fiber intake and SCFA, and to weight status and treatment response in overweight/obese patients. In this exploratory analysis, specific bacterial genera, particularly Parabacteroides, were associated with weight status and eating behavior in two small, independent and well-characterized cross-sectional samples. These preliminary findings suggest two groups of presumably beneficial and unfavorable genera that relate to eating behavior and weight status, and indicate that dietary fiber and SCFA metabolism may modify these relationships. Larger interventional studies are needed to distinguish correlation from causation.

No studies, to date, have examined the relationship between dietary fiber and recurrence or survival after head and neck cancer diagnosis. The aim of this study was to determine whether pretreatment intake of dietary fiber or whole grains predicted recurrence and survival outcomes in newly diagnosed head and neck cancer (HNC) patients. This was a prospective cohort study of 463 participants baring a new head and neck cancer diagnosis who were recruited into the study prior to the initiation of any cancer therapy. Baseline (pre-treatment) dietary and clinical data were measured upon entry into the study cohort. Clinical outcomes were ascertained at annual medical reviews. Cox proportional hazard models were fit to examine the relationships between dietary fiber and whole grain intakes with recurrence and survival. There were 112 recurrence events, 121 deaths, and 77 cancer-related deaths during the study period. Pretreatment dietary fiber intake was inversely associated with risk of all-cause mortality (hazard ratio (HR): 0.37, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.14–0.95, ptrend = 0.04). No statistically significant associations between whole grains and prognostic outcomes were found. We conclude that higher dietary fiber intake, prior to the initiation of treatment, may prolong survival time, in those with a new HNC diagnosis.

ABSTRACT Background Previous research in adults has reported an association between sandwich consumers and increased daily energy, total fat, and sodium intakes and decreased dietary fiber intake. Additionally, sandwich consumers had a lower diet quality, as compared to non-sandwich consumers. However, the research failed to differentiate between the types of sandwiches consumed. Objectives The purpose of this study was to model different sandwiches, using both whole-grain bread (WGB), enriched-grain bread (EGB), and soft taco tortillas, to examine associations with energy (kcal), nutrient intakes, and diet quality, in comparison to the typically consumed sandwich (control). Methods Data from the NHANES 2013–2014 was used to complete the analyses in adults ≥19 years old, and USDA food composites were used to create 5 sandwich types, using WGB, EGB, or soft corn tortillas. Results In the modeling analysis, adults consuming the soft corn tortilla taco had lower energy, as compared to those eating the typical sandwich. Total fat intakes were lower in the WGB and EGB grilled chicken/cheese/vegetable sandwiches and in the soft taco tortilla, in comparison to the control sandwich. Sodium intakes were lower in the WGB and EGB grilled chicken/cheese/vegetable sandwiches and in the soft taco tortilla, in comparison to the typical sandwich consumed. All WGB sandwich models and the soft taco tortilla had greater daily dietary fiber intakes, in comparison to the control sandwich. WGB, EGB, and tortilla sandwiches were also associated with greater intakes of shortfall nutrients. All sandwich models, except EGB with meat/cheese/vegetables, had higher diet qualities, in comparison to the control. Conclusions The current data support the inclusion of certain WGB and EGB sandwiches/tortillas, within recommended dietary patterns, in American adults, and suggest that ingredients within a sandwich, rather than the just the bread component, can be an important contributor to overall nutrient intakes and nutrients to limit in the diet.

Dietary fiber has been actively studied for its profound impacts on mental health by affecting the gut–brain axis communication. However, the association between dietary fiber intake and depression has been inconsistent, partly due to the lack of consideration of the fiber source. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the association between various sources of dietary fiber and depression in Korean adults through a nationwide cross-sectional study. The study population was a total of 2960 adults between 19 and 64 years of age who participated in the Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES, 2012–2016). Dietary fiber intake from each fiber subtype (crude, cereal, vegetable, fruit, seaweed, and mushroom) was calculated using the Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ). Depression prevalence was assessed using a Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) and self-reported clinical diagnosis by a physician. We found that seaweed (odds ratio (OR) = 0.38; 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.20–0.72; p < 0.05) and mushroom fiber intake (OR = 0.18; 95% CI: 0.01–0.37; p < 0.05) were inversely associated with depressive symptoms assessed using the PHQ-9 parameters. Moreover, seaweed fiber intake was inversely associated with clinical depression diagnosed by a physician (OR = 0.45; 95% CI: 0.23–0.88; p < 0.05). This was the first study to find that higher intakes of seaweed and mushroom fiber were associated with a lower likelihood of depression in a representative cohort of Korean adults, indicating that the specific source of dietary fiber may be an important dietary factor in modulating depression.

AbstractNutrient intake for adult cancer survivors is of clinical importance for managing metabolic health. Whether dietary fiber intake is associated with metabolic syndrome (MetS) or not in adult cancer survivors is uncertain. We aim to investigate the association between dietary fiber intake and MetS in adult cancer survivors using a population-based cross-sectional study. A study sample of 1301 adult cancer survivors aged more than 20 years from the sixth and seventh Korea Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES) from 2013 to 2018 was identified. Odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) were estimated from multiple logistic regression adjusted for sociodemographic factors, health behavior, and nutritional status. Among 1,301 adult cancer survivors identified from the KNHANES 2013–2018, the mean dietary fiber intake was 28.1 g/day (standard error, 0.54). Compared to the first quintile of dietary fiber intake, the adjusted ORs and 95% CIs for MetS in the second, third, fourth, and fifth quintiles of dietary fiber intake were 0.84 (0.27–2.61), 0.77 (0.16–3.74), 0.55 (0.14–2.22), and 0.26 (0.05–1.39), respectively (p value for trend = 0.0007). Our findings suggest that high dietary fiber intake is marginally associated with reduced odds of MetS in adult cancer survivors.

AbstractObjectivesThe gut microbiome modulates human brain function and eating behavior through multiple factors, including short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) signaling. We aimed to determine which bacterial genera relate to eating behavior, diet and SCFA metabolites in overweight adults. In addition, we tested whether eating-related microbiota predict treatment success in patients after bariatric surgery.DesignAnthropometrics, eating behaviour measures and 16S-rRNA-derived microbiota abundance were correlated in young overweight adults (n=27 (9F), 21-36 years, BMI 25-31 kg/m2), and in patients two years after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (n=23 (16F), 41-70 years, BMI 25-62 kg/m2) compared to matched overweight and obese controls (n=17 (11F), 26-69 years, BMI 25-48 kg/m2). Dietary fiber intake was assessed and SCFA were measured in feces and blood using mass spectrometry in young adults.ResultsIn the young adults, 7 bacteria genera, i.e. Alistipes, Blautia, Clostridiales cluster XVIII, Gemmiger, Roseburia, Ruminococcus and Streptococcus, correlated with healthier eating behavior, while 5 genera, i.e. Clostridiales cluster IV and XIVb, Collinsella, Fusicatenibacter and Parabacteroides, correlated with unhealthier eating (all |r| > 0.4, FDR-corrected p < 0.05). Some of these genera including Parabacteroides related to fiber intake and SCFA metabolites, and to weight status and treatment response in obese patients.ConclusionSpecific bacterial genera, particularly Parabacteroides, were reliably associated with weight status and eating behavior in two independent well-characterized cross-sectional samples. Together, these findings indicate two groups of presumably beneficial and unfavourable genera that relate to eating behaviour and weight status, and indicate that dietary fiber and SCFA metabolism may modify these relationships.Significance of this studyWhat is already known about this subject?-The gut microbiome may modulate brain function and eating behavior through production of short-chain fatty acids (SCFA) from dietary fiber.What are the new findings?-This cross-sectional exploratory study finds that the abundance of specific groups of bacterial genera, including Parabacteroides, correlate with eating behavior, diet, SCFA as well as weight status and obesity treatment success in two independent well-characterized samples.How might it impact on clinical practice in the foreseeable future?-These findings might help to develop novel hypotheses how to prevent and treat unhealthy food craving through microbiotal modulation of the gut-brain axis.
