Forty-eight hours of in vitro gas production of substrates inoculated using stool from patients who participated in the human MRI study (n=8). (A) Median cumulative gas production showing an early rapid fermentation of dextrose followed by the inulin and psyllium combination. (B) Area under the curve (AUC) of in vitro gas production for each test drink (on the x axis). Data shown are mean±95% CI. (A) Dextrose AUC is significantly greater than inulin (p=0.0008), psyllium (p=0.0001) and calculated inulin and psyllium (p=0.001). (B) Inulin and psyllium combination AUC is significantly greater than psyllium (p=0.002).
