Sweeteners, Glucose Intolerance and Microbiota

Öz

The use of food additives in food production are inevitable in this modern world. Although only safe amount of them are approved, their safety have always been questioned. The effects of food additives on microbiota have not been investigated in detailed manner up to know. In this review the effects of sweeteners, a part of food additives, were reviewed and showed that they affect microbiota. As a rusult, nonnutritive syntetic sweeteners can lead to glucose intolerance by affecting microbiota and a part of sugar alcohols show probiotic like effects.

Tatlandırıcılar, Glikoz İntoleransı ve Mikrobiyota

Öz

Gıda katkı maddelerinin günümüz dünyasında kullanılması kaçınılmaz hale gelmiştir. Her ne kadar sadece güvenli miktarların gıdalarda kullanılmasına izin verilse de katkı maddelerinin güvenilirliği sürekli sorgulanmaktadır. Katkı maddelerinin mikrobiyotaya etkileri ise oldukça az çalışılmış bir konudur. Katkı maddelerinin bir kısmını oluşturan tatlandırıcıların etkisini incelediğimiz bu derlemede, tatlandırıcıların mikrobiyotayı etkiledikleri, bu etki sonucu sentetik olanların glikoz intoleransına yol açtıkları, şeker alkollerinin ise bir kısmının prebiyotik benzeri olumlu bir etki gösterdiği anlaşılmaktadır.
