  1. 1Abbreviations are: ffar free fatty acid receptor, sucnr succinate receptor, GLP-1 glucagon-like peptide-1, PYY peptide tyrosine tyrosine.
  2. 2Groups were given diets containing 10% w/w fibre as cellulose (CELL), fructo-oligosaccharide (FOS), oat beta-glucan (GLUC) or apple pectin (PECT); n = 10/group.
  3. 3Values are medians (with 95% C.I.) as determined by REST-2009[32]. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01.
