While unreplicated studies are a dime-a-dozen imagine the impact on big pharma if it turned out that eating oatmeal or barley fiber every day was an end-run around the ludicrously high cost of GLP-1 treatments in the US. Muesli anyone?
Checking butyrate I found this paper about it's effect on obesity:
https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S216183132200833X
It concludes "The effect of endogenous butyrate on the gut-brain axis warrants further investigations."
I'm curious to see where this goes!
