Summary

It is a pilot study, conducting on 6 healthy women and aiming at defining new biomarkers related to wheat bran fermentation. For this, a breakfast, containing 5 biscuits enriched in 13-C wheat bran (which grown under 13-CO2 enriched atmosphere) is given to the subjects, then a following will be realized on 24h with breath, urine, fecal and blood samples. Analysis will be performed on these samples in order to determine potential biomarkers of fibers consumption to evaluate the metabolic effects of this consumption and to refine the relevance of nutritional recommendation regarding fibers for healthy subjects.

Nutritional Intervention

The intervention will be done on 1 day, time during which, each subject will stay at the CRNH. A breakfast containing the fibers will be given to them, then during 24h a following will be done to get fecal, urinary, plasmatic and expiratory samples. Standardized lunch, dinner and collation will be served during the day.
