Which metabolic change follows disruption of gut microbiome?

A)Reduced absorption of digestible carbohydrates
B)Increased levels of circulating branched fats
C)Enhanced synthesis of essential vitamins
D)Decreased breakdown of dietary fiber

💡 Explanation

Decreased fiber degradation results, because disrupted microbiomes reduce microbial fermentation, which directly impairs the enzymatic breakdown of complex carbohydrates, rather than boosting vitamin synthesis; therefore, fiber accumulates, rather than being converted into short-chain fatty acids.
