Each patient consumed 180 g per day of ordinary artichokes or artichokes enriched with Lactobacillus paracasei IMPC 2.1 for 15 days.
According to the returned questionnaires, 80% of patients preferred probiotic-enriched artichokes compared to ordinary ones.
Furthermore, the short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) production and propionic acid were significantly higher in the probiotic group compared with the baseline.
In order to reveal more information artichoke in the promotion of bowel health, researchers investigated the chemicals compounds inulin and oligofructose, a class of fructans found in the Jerusalem artichoke.
Furthermore, inulin and oligofructose also displayed significant effects in the promotion of bowel health by protecting the colin against colon cancer.
Taken altogether, artichoke, particularly Jerusalem artichoke alone or combined with probiotics may be considered functional remedies for the improvement of bowel health, pending to the validation of larger sample size and multicenter human study.
