Text: The rye bread shortened total intestinal transit time (mean difference, -0. 7 ; CI (95), -1. 1 to -0. 2 ; P = 0. 007), increased faecal frequency (0. 3 ; CI (95), 0. 1 to 0. 5 ; P = 0. 001), softened faeces (-0. 3 ; CI (95), -0. 4 to -0. 2 ; P < 0. 001) and made defecation easier (-0. 4 ; CI (95), -0. 5 to -0. 2 ; P < 0. 001), but also increased gastrointestinal symptoms (1. 6 ; CI (95), 0. 7 to 2. 4 ; P < 0. 001) compared to the low-fibre toast consumed in the LGG and control groups.
