1.	Constipation 12/04/2013 - "This study probed the effects of Deshipu stachyose granules (DSG), a novel oligosaccharide preparation (55.3% stachyose, 25.8% raffinose, and 9.7% verbascose), on gut microbiota and constipation in mice. "
2.	Flatulence 06/10/2020 - "It is well documented in the literature that the raffinose family of oligosaccharides (RFOs: raffinose, stachyose, and verbascose) is linked with flatulence issues. " 01/01/2013 - "The oligosaccharides associated with the production of flatulence viz., raffinose, stachyose, and verbascose were in the limits of 1.66% to 2.58%, 0.94% to 1.88%, and 0.85% to 1.23%, respectively. " 09/01/2001 - "[The domestic processing of the common bean resulted in a reduction in the phytates and tannins antinutritional factors, in the starch content and in the raffinose, stachiose and verbascose flatulence factors]." 03/01/2019 - "HPLC method was optimized for analysis eight flatulence and non-flatulence saccharides in 11 ricebean varieties using Spherisorb NH2 chromatographic column within 20 min by isocratic mobile phase containing acetonitrile and water in ratio of 70:30 at flow rate of 1 mL/min. The glucose, sucrose, raffinose, stachyose, verbascose and ajugose content in these varieties ranged from 157.63-365.08, 202.61-997.74, 196.29-429.5, 692.7-1480.67, 47.66-130.36 and 0.27-8.82 mg/100 g, respectively.

3.	Parkinson Disease (Parkinson's Disease) 03/01/2010 - "Cultivated faba bean (Vicia faba) is widely used as human food, especially in Europe, Northern Africa and China. In view of its superior feeding value over field peas or other legumes, it is also widely used as animal feed for a variety of species. V. faba also contains medically important components such as 3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (levo-DOPA, L-DOPA), the principal treatment used for Parkinson's disease patients. However, this species also contains several antinutritional components, including the pyrimidine glycosides vicine and convicine; phytates; and the sucrose galactosides including raffinose, stachyose and verbascose. We have undertaken a genomic project to provide publicly available expressed sequence tag sequences (EST) prepared from early to mid developing embryo in an attempt to identify genes that are likely to be involved in the biosynthesis of L-DOPA and the vicine group of compounds. As initial examples of the utility of this approach, we describe the complete sequence of fabatin, new defensins, type 4 metallothioneins and a variety of other key genes which were identified in this EST library.

4.	Hypersensitivity (Allergy) 11/05/2014 - "For assay in vivo, administration of verbascose at a medium dose of 90 mg/kg body weight could significantly increase the index of spleen, activity of lysozyme in spleen and serum, hemolysin level in serum, and swelling rate of earlap in the delayed type of hypersensitivity (DTH) of immunosuppressed mice. "
5.	Body Weight (Weight, Body) 11/05/2014 - "For assay in vivo, administration of verbascose at a medium dose of 90 mg/kg body weight could significantly increase the index of spleen, activity of lysozyme in spleen and serum, hemolysin level in serum, and swelling rate of earlap in the delayed type of hypersensitivity (DTH) of immunosuppressed mice.
