“…Effects of NSP and RS on activity-related energy expenditure have been attributed to fermentation processes (Schrama and Bakker, 1999). In contrast with the rapid digestion of enzymatically degradable starch, fermentation of RS may continue for many hours after feeding, resulting in a more gradual supply of energy (Asp et al, 1996;Van der Meulen et al, 1997). In our study, this was reflected in the distinct circadian patterns in RQ and heat production of pigs on the two different diets.…”

Both dietary fermentable carbohydrates and the availability of straw bedding potentially affect activity patterns and energy utilisation in pigs. The present study aimed to investigate the combined effects of straw bedding and fermentable carbohydrates (native potato starch) on energy partitioning in growing pigs. In a 2 3 2 factorial arrangement, 16 groups of 12 pigs (approximately 25 kg) were assigned to either barren housing or housing on straw bedding, and to native or pregelatinised potato starch included in the diet. Pigs were fed at approximately 2.5 times maintenance. Nitrogen and energy balances were measured per group during a 7-day experimental period, which was preceded by a 30-day adaptation period. Heat production and physical activity were measured during 9-min intervals. The availability of straw bedding increased both metabolisable energy (ME) intake and total heat production (P , 0.001). Housing conditions did not affect total energy retention, but pigs on straw bedding retained more energy as protein (P , 0.01) and less as fat (P , 0.05) than barren-housed pigs. Average daily gain (P , 0.001), ME intake (P , 0.001) and energy retention (P , 0.01) were lower in pigs on the native potato starch diet compared to those on the pregelatinised potato starch diet. Pigs on the pregelatinised potato starch diet showed larger fluctuations in heat production and respiration quotient over the 24-h cycle than pigs on the native potato starch diet, and a higher activity-related energy expenditure. The effect of dietary starch type on activity-related heat production depended, however, on housing type (P , 0.05). In barren housing, activity-related heat production was less affected by starch type (16.1% and 13.7% of total heat production on the pregelatinised and native potato starch diet, respectively) than in strawenriched housing (21.1% and 15.0% of the total heat production on the pregelatinised and native potato starch diet, respectively). In conclusion, the present study shows that the availability both of straw bedding and of dietary starch type, fermentable or digestible, affects energy utilisation and physical activity of pigs. The effects of housing condition on protein and fat deposition suggest that environmental enrichment with long straw may result in leaner pigs. The lower energy expenditure on the physical activity of pigs on the native potato starch diet, which was the most obvious in straw-housed pigs, likely reflects a decrease in foraging behaviour related to a more gradual supply of energy from fermentation processes.

“…RS is defined as the starch or starch degradation products which are not absorbed in the small intestine of healthy individuals (Berry, 1986;Asp et al 1996). RS is a major substrate for colonic fermentation and a good source of butyrate.…”

“…However the viscosity of the solutions prior to ingestion does not seem to equate to the intensity of physiological effect (El Kossori et al, 2000) and the effects can be diminished when there is greater bulk in the diet (Giacco et al, 1998). Insoluble and intact plant cell-walls may hold together particles too large for nutrients to escape from them (Asp et al, 1996). The relative importance of these two potential mechanisms is not clear, although there are positive effects on glycaemic indices (Ha et al, 1992) and glycaemic control (Wolever et al, 1991) as well as favourable blood lipid modulation (Brown et al, 1999).…”

The objective of this paper is to present a de®nition for dietary ®bre based on recent advances that have taken place not only in human nutrition but also in plant cell-wall science and animal nutrition. We propose a physiologically based framework de®nition but, recognizing the diversity of dietary ®bre, we have proposed further classi®cations within this framework. We also suggest that dietary ®bre be removed from the carbohydrate group of nutrients because some compounds de®ned as dietary ®bre are not chemically carbohydrates. The de®nition and classi®cation system clearly highlight areas where further studies are needed.
