• Sorghum genotype may reduce low-grade inflammatory response and oxidative stress and maintains jejunum morphology of rats fed a hyperlipidic diet (2012, background): “Additionally a study which involved the incorporation of sorghumwith higher tannin content into diets prepared for pigs resulted in less weight gain (Al-Mamary et al., 2001).”
• New hypotheses for the health-protective mechanisms of whole-grain cereals: what is beyond fibre? (2010, background): “Their main negative effect is their ability to reduce the bioavailability and the absorption of some nutrients (for example, the chelation of minerals by phytic acid and tannins), the binding of lectins to epithelial cells that damages the intestinal microvillae, and inhibition of digestive enzymes ”
• Sorghum: An Underutilized Cereal Whole Grain with the Potential to Assist in the Prevention of Chronic Disease (2015, unknown): “animals consumed more feed yet experienced the same or slightly less weight gain when tannin sorghum formed the basis of their diets.((116,117,120)) Such effects in a Western diet, where food is ubiquitous, may be beneficial if these results are to be translatable to humans.”
• Sorghum phytochemicals and their potential impact on human health. (2004, background): “Another mechanism involves the direct binding of digestive enzymes including sucrase, amylases, trypsin, chymotrypsin and lipases (Lizardo et al., 1995; Carmona et al., 1996; Nguz et al., 1998; Al-Mamary et al., 2001), thus inhibiting”
