“…Mice fed a Western diet high in fat and sucrose and containing a mixture of lean seafood (ling, rose fish, cod, wolf fish) and muscle from Canadian scallop were reported to gain less adipose tissue mass than mice fed a Western diet containing a mixture of skinless chicken breast, pork tenderloin, and beef sirloin. 30 A diet containing a mixture of protein from cod and scallop was reported to reduce fat mass and improve glucose tolerance when compared with isoenergetic diets containing either chicken or casein, respectively, in mice fed a high-fat diet for 6 weeks. 31 The feed efficiency values were lower in the mice fed cod/scallop and casein than in the mice fed chicken.…”

“…Some recent animal studies have found that a diet containing proteins from lean seafood tends to be less obesogenic than a regular Western diet containing proteins from meat such as chicken, pork, or beef. 30,65 Comparison of the gut microbiome of mice fed 2 different Western diets (with lean seafood vs lean meat) revealed significant differences in the abundance of microbial genes. 30 Marine protein sources tend to have moderate to high content of the branched-chain amino acids valine, leucine, and isoleucine.…”

“…30,65 Comparison of the gut microbiome of mice fed 2 different Western diets (with lean seafood vs lean meat) revealed significant differences in the abundance of microbial genes. 30 Marine protein sources tend to have moderate to high content of the branched-chain amino acids valine, leucine, and isoleucine. These amino acids participate in several metabolic pathways and are present in high concentrations shown to counteract obesity development in mice fed a high-fat diet.…”

Emerging evidence from studies evaluating the effect of lean fish consumption in humans suggests that proteins from fish have several beneficial metabolic effects. Rest, or waste, material from the fishing industry contains high-quality proteins, and utilization of this material offers novel possibilities for the development of protein-containing products that might be beneficial for human consumption. Fish-derived peptides containing bioactive amino acid sequences suggested to beneficially influence pathways involved in body composition, hypertension, lipid profile, and regulation of glucose metabolism are of particular interest, although the results of published studies are conflicting. This review aims to summarize current knowledge from animal studies and clinical interventions in humans evaluating the effects of lean fish, fish proteins, and fish-derived peptides on outcomes related to metabolic health. Fish proteins have a high content of taurine, and animal trials suggest that taurine mediates some of the beneficial effects observed thus far, although the mechanisms by which fish peptides exert their action are not yet elucidated. At this time, the literature is inconsistent, and there is insufficient mechanistic evidence to support a beneficial effect of fish-derived peptides on metabolic health.

“…Pronounced interpopulation and interindividual variations in the gut microbial communities are observed in many species, with contributions from endogenous factors, such as age, sex and genotype, and exogenous factors, including habitat and diet (Bennett et al, 2016;Han, Lee, Jeong, Jeon, & Hyun, 2017;Kovacs et al, 2011). As gut microbes can help in the digestion of ingested food, changes in gut microbial populations could entail a shift in the genes that carry out metabolic reactions in the gastrointestinal tract, which could impact the food utilization efficiency of the host (Holm et al, 2016;Turnbaugh et al, 2006).…”

The extent to which diet and environment influence gut community membership (presence or absence of taxa) and structure (individual taxon abundance) is the subject of growing interest in microbiome research. Here, we examined the gut bacterial communities of three cricket groups: (1) wild caught field crickets, (2) laboratory‐reared crickets fed cat chow, and (3) laboratory‐reared crickets fed chemically defined diets. We found that both environment and diet greatly altered the structure of the gut bacterial community. Wild crickets had greater gut microbial diversity and higher Firmicutes to Bacteroidetes ratios, in contrast to laboratory‐reared crickets. Predictive metagenomes revealed that laboratory‐reared crickets were significantly enriched in amino acid degradation pathways, while wild crickets had a higher relative abundance of peptidases that would aid in amino acid release. Although wild and laboratory animals differ greatly in their bacterial communities, we show that the community proportional membership remains stable from Phylum to Family taxonomic levels regardless of differences in environment and diet, suggesting that endogenous factors, such as host genetics, have greater control in shaping gut community membership.

“…It has been reported that dietary proteins from different sources including fish could rapidly alter the microbial composition in rat caecum as quickly as two days (Zhao et al 2017). Protein from seafood led to less energy intake and weight gain than that from meat as well as altered the gut microbiota (Holm et al 2016). Administration of a Western diet (WD) containing lean seafood (seafood WD) for 12 weeks could reduce fat mass compared with a WD containing lean meat (meat WD) (Wu et al 2011).…”

The intestine is the natural habitat for a large and dynamic bacterial community, which perform vital metabolic and immune functions that significantly effect the nutritional and health status of the host. The major physiological functions of intestinal flora include metabolic activities that lead to important trophic effects on immune structure and function as well as protection of the colonized host against invasion by transient microbes. The intestinal flora is both a target for nutritional intervention and a factor influencing the biological activity of food compounds acquired orally. Marine environments, as a source of diverse organic compounds, can supply us with a number of beneficial and health-promoting ingredients. This review focuses on the physiological functions of intestinal flora and reciprocal interactions between intestinal flora and dietary marine components including polysaccharides, lipids, protein, taurine, carotenoids, minerals, and polyphenols. This review can serve as a valuable reference regarding the consumption of seafood and marine nutraceuticals.
