      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Double blinded, Placebo: Used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Treatment, Other design features: The patients will be divided into three groups: High Performance Inulin- Oligofructose-enriched Inulin- Placebo, Randomization description: Randomization will be done by Permuted Block Randomization, via the website, https://www.sealedenvelope.com/simple-randomiser/v1/lists. Each block has capacity for four subjects. After that, subjects will be randomly assigned to treatment or placebo groups, within each block. Random assignment will be done using a random chain, which will be extracted from the site, Blinding description: Two ype of Inulin supplements and palcebo will be given to patients in similar packs. Both patients and the researcher are not aware of being in intervention or placebo group. Inulin supplements and placebo are relatively identical, in terms of color, taste and solubility.</study_design>

      <i_freetext>Intervention 1: Intervention group:  High Performance Inulin group. With Degree of Polymerization equal or more than 22, with commercial name Frutafit® TEX, Sensus/Netherlands. The supplement will be given to patients in 10 grams packs. It should be consumed by dissolving in water or yogurt, with main meals. Intervention 2: Intervention group: Oligofructose-enriched inulin, with average Degree of Polymerization between 8 to 13, with commercial name  Frutafit® IQ, Sensus/Netherlands. The supplement will be given to patients in 10 grams packs. It should be consumed by dissolving in water or yogurt, with main meals. Intervention 3: Control group: Maltodextrin powder, 10 grams per day. The placebo will be given to patients in 10 grams packs.
