The human gastrointestinal tract, particularly the colon, is densely populated with microflora, primarily and that are responsible for maintaining diet-based human health. Prebiotics, which are non-living dietary components, selectively stimulate the growth and activity of these beneficial gut microorganisms, offering numerous health benefits. This paper aims to explore the feasibility of utilizing Indonesian exotic fruit seeds as a potential source of prebiotic carbohydrates for functional foods and dietary additives. There are seven Indonesian exotic fruits that have large seed portions and are rich in various carbohydrates that function as prebiotics. These prebiotic carbohydrates, particularly oligosaccharides, can be extracted directly from fruit seeds or produced through enzymatic, fermentation, chemical, or thermal processes, each of which influences the prebiotic composition and effectiveness. Incorporating prebiotic carbohydrates into human health care and functional food production could reduce reliance on synthetic antibiotics. Furthermore, repurposing fruit seed residues for prebiotic production not only contributes to economic growth but also promotes environmental sustainability by minimizing waste.
人类胃肠道,尤其是结肠,密布着微生物群落,主要是负责维持基于饮食的人类健康的微生物。益生元作为无生命的膳食成分,能选择性地刺激这些有益肠道微生物的生长和活性,带来诸多健康益处。本文旨在探讨利用印度尼西亚外来水果种子作为功能性食品和膳食添加剂中益生元碳水化合物潜在来源的可行性。有七种印度尼西亚外来水果,其种子部分较大,富含多种具有益生元功能的碳水化合物。这些益生元碳水化合物,尤其是低聚糖,可以直接从水果种子中提取,或通过酶法、发酵法、化学法或热法生产,每种方法都会影响益生元的组成和效果。将益生元碳水化合物纳入人类医疗保健和功能性食品生产中,可以减少对合成抗生素的依赖。此外,将水果种子残渣用于益生元生产不仅有助于经济增长,还能通过最大限度减少废物来促进环境可持续性。
