| 摘要 |
The invention concerns the use of a food additive containing at least one intense sweetener, orally and/or rectally administered, to modify flora and/or fermentation in the digestive tract of an animal. The food additive is used to increase the amount of fiber in a diet formula for the animal compared to a previous diet formula without modifying animal zootechnical performance and/or to decrease the amount of starch and/or simple carbohydrates in a diet formula for the animal compared to a previous diet formula without modifying animal zootechnical performance. For example, the animal is fed with a diet formula containing a decreased amount of carbohydrates minus fiber, said decreased amount corresponding to an amount of carbohydrates minus fiber inducing, without said food additive, a glucose uptake rate inferior to an optimal glucose uptake rate, especially inferior to 80% of the maximal glucose uptake rate for the animal. |
