Description

On Demand

This program is a series of four articles to be published in AGA’s quarterly e-newsletter, AGA Microbiome Update. One article will run per issue (May, July, October, December 2019). Each article will provide an expert perspective on a topic related to prebiotics and digestive health. The articles will be evidence-based but are not intended to be comprehensive literature reviews. Rather, they will give the reader an objective, high-level summary of the current understanding of prebiotics and digestive health.
