Effects of dietary fiber intake on inflammation in chronic diseases

Abstract: Chronic diseases such as obesity, type-2 diabetes, metabolic syndrome and cardiovascular diseases are associated with inflammation due the increase of TNF-α, IL-6 and C-reactive protein concentrations. Occidental life style, specially related to the changes in food habits as observed in the past years, have an important role in the development of these diseases. Among the life style changes identified as having an impact in the development of diseases, is the decrease in dietary fiber consumption. Some studies… Show more

“…Comparisons between the two low-calorie diets showed no difference regarding the effect on inflammatory cytokines. Increased fiber intake may partly explain more favorable changes in the inflammatory profile in chronic diseases including type-2 diabetes mellitus ( 23 ). In particular, soluble fiber may be important in this respect, because it is converted to the short-chain fatty acids, which have several anti-inflammatory properties such as regulation of cytokine release ( 24 ).…”
