Fermenting substrates

Undigested food components consist of food substrates, such as proteins that have not been digested in the small intestine.
Larik et al. 2024 Cell Host & Microbe 32(8): 1225

The main precursors for fermentation are dietary carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, and indigenous secretions such as mucin
Sanders et al. 2019 Nat Rev Gastroenterology & Hepatology 16(10): 605-616
