More references needed

edit

Perhaps re-examine text below and modify if needed and add more references: Of the short-chain fatty acids, the acetate production pathways is done by various bacterial groups whereas the propionate, butyrate and lactate production is done by a more select number of microbiota (including Akkermansia municiphilla (propionate), Faecalibacterium prausnitzii, Eubacterium rectale, Eubacterium hallii and Ruminococcus bromii (butyrate)[1])

First Paragraph of Uses Section

edit

The word "already" doesn't make sense in the context of the first paragraph of the Uses section copied here: "Starch has been consumed by people and animals for thousands of years. Thus, foods containing resistant starch are already commonly consumed.". Perhaps the word "already" could be removed without changing the meaning of the paragraph. Also, "thousands of years" seems like an arbitrary timescale. 2600:100E:B01A:FF8D:0:4C:6B67:D701 (talk) 13:53, 20 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

Agreed as a vague unnecessary sentence removed with this edit. Zefr (talk) 16:02, 20 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
