Further on as a conclusion, on the same page:If you are in ketosis or fast regularly, the results are not as profound but there appears to be a subtile benefit over time. If you eat a normal, moderate carb diet (150-200g daily) the results are profound, both for daily ingestion and supplemental ingestion with each starchy meal. If you eat SAD and just can’t stop, then it’s probably most important to be supplementing RS daily.

Thx. I'm still wandering around the foothills of the microbiome range, and it's not been a very easy climb so far.0 -
It helps if you wear crampons...
Think of Microbiomes as your buddies if you treat them right, but very much against you if you don't.
There are at least 50 trillion of them in your lower bowel; approximately 1000 different types.... Commercial pre/probitoics have very little beneficial effect. Naturl foods, prepared by 'you' from scratch, will be far better for 'you' in the long run ('you' generic, not 'you' specific....)- They help regulate body weight
- They regulate our entire immune system
- indigestible food is converted into a wide range of hormones and chemicals - these control our moods, appetites and general health.
- They have evolved - with us - over thousands of years
Just as mankind is laying acres and acres of rainforest to waste, in favour of growing potentially and arguably less beneficial crops, so we have, in a nutshell, done the same to our gut.
Fortunately, with care and 'devotion', the gut situation can be rememdied... (The rainforest situation may take more work...)1 -

That's about what I have seen. RS is most helpful to those eating carbs. I don't worry much about my microbiome that digests plants because I eat so few of them. :P1
