Abstract
The paper presents the effect of synthetic and natural prebiotics and a synbiotic on the lipid metabolism of snails (Cepaea nemoralis) fed in laboratory conditions. The diet of the snails was supplemented with synthetic inulin, Jerusalem artichoke and a commercial synbiotic in various configurations. The results indicate that the dietary supplements caused differences in the production of fatty acids by the snails. In all of the experimental groups an increase in the quantity of unsaturated fatty acids was observed with respect to the control, with the highest level of UFA noted in the case of supplementation with the synbiotic together with inulin. The results indicate the usefulness of simultaneous application of pre- and synbiotics in commercial farming of taxa belonging to the Helicidae in order to improve the health-promoting value of snail meat.
