Dietary fibre modifies gut microbiota: what's the role of (poly)phenols?

Abstract
The association between dietary consumption of fibre and health-related gut bacteria is essential but not unique. (Poly)phenols are among the most important bioactive components contained in fibre-rich foods. For this reason, the role of (poly)phenols when considering dietary fibres and health outcomes should be taken into account, as synergic or mediating factors contributing to human health.
