In Vitro Assessment of Postbiotic and Probiotic Commercial Dietary Supplements Recommended for Counteracting Intestinal Dysbiosis in Dogs

Veterinary Sciences, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 11(1), P. 19 - 19

Many environmental aspects influence the preservation of a beneficial microbiome in dogs, and gut dysbiosis occurs when imbalances intestinal ecosystem cause functional changes microbial populations. The authors evaluated effects two specific commercial dietary supplements: combination postbiotic prebiotics (Microbiotal cane®) probiotic product (NBF 1®) recommended for counteracting on canine microbiota composition its metabolic activities (production short-chain fatty acids). investigation was performed using an vitro fermentation system inoculated with dog fecal samples. Microbiotal cane® promoted more immediate increase Lactobacillus spp. after first 6 h fermentation, whereas NBF 1® at end process only. supplements supported Bifidobacterium counts only 24 h. abilities to selectively bacterial groups producing acetic, propionic, butyric acids suggest possible positive effect microbiota, even if further vivo studies are needed confirm health.

Extra Virgin Olive Oil Phenolic Compounds: Modulating Mitochondrial Function and Protecting Against Chronic Diseases—A Narrative Review

Nutrients, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 17(9), P. 1443 - 1443

Published: April 25, 2025

Extra virgin olive oil (EVOO), an essential element of the Mediterranean diet (MedDiet), has demonstrated considerable potential in improving mitochondrial health and protecting against chronic diseases. This narrative review aims to explore how main phenolic compounds found EVOO-hydroxytyrosol, oleuropein, oleocanthal-contribute by reducing oxidative stress inflammation. A search for scientific evidence was carried out between October 2024 March 2025 different bibliographic databases such as PubMed, Web Science, Embase, SciSpace, ResearchRabbit databases. The strategy included combinations terms "extra oil", "EVOO polyphenols", "mitochondrial function", "oxidative stress", "inflammation", "mitophagy", "chronic diseases". Preclinical, clinical, mechanistic studies were included, giving priority peer-reviewed publications. shows some bioactive components EVOO activate cellular pathways, mTOR, AMPK sirtuins, which promote biogenesis, improve efficiency electron transport chain, protect DNA integrity. Furthermore, improves membrane fluidity integrity, ensuring its functionality efficiency. On other hand, nutrition literacy, important component health, is a critical determinant people's eating behaviors. Although recent supports metabolic benefits on metabolism function, further nutritional intervention with these are recommended confirm their clinical relevance dietary tool aimed at preventing and/or delaying age-related
