  • Reduced Short-Chain Fatty Acid Levels in Feces

  • Moderate evidence

  supplementing the low-<i>A. hallii</i>-abundant microbiota with glycerol significantly increased the PhIP transformation capacity after 6 h while reducing total short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) levels, which is most likely due to acrolein production.
