Could Reducing Endotoxins Be Why Your Health Improves?



Certain bacteria in the intestines produce endotoxins like ๐˜ญ๐˜ช๐˜ฑ๐˜ฐ๐˜ฑ๐˜ฐ๐˜ญ๐˜บ๐˜ด๐˜ข๐˜ค๐˜ค๐˜ฉ๐˜ข๐˜ณ๐˜ช๐˜ฅ๐˜ฆ๐˜ด, which can be absorbed into circulation and cause a state of ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฏ๐˜ฅ๐˜ฐ๐˜ต๐˜ฐ๐˜น๐˜ฆ๐˜ฎ๐˜ช๐˜ข that leads to low-grade inflammation throughout the body.โฃ

One reason the modern Western diet high in starches and fat causes so much health problems is because the ๐˜€๐˜๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐—ฐ๐—ต๐—ฒ๐˜€ ๐—ณ๐—ฎ๐—ฐ๐—ถ๐—น๐—ถ๐˜๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ฒ ๐˜๐—ต๐—ฒ ๐—ฐ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ถ๐—ผ๐—ป ๐—ผ๐—ณ ๐—ฒ๐—ป๐—ฑ๐—ผ๐˜๐—ผ๐˜…๐—ถ๐—ป๐˜€ ๐—ฎ๐—ป๐—ฑ ๐˜๐—ต๐—ฒ ๐—ณ๐—ฎ๐˜๐˜€ ๐—ฝ๐—ฟ๐—ผ๐—บ๐—ผ๐˜๐—ฒ ๐—ถ๐˜๐˜€ ๐—ฎ๐—ฏ๐˜€๐—ผ๐—ฟ๐—ฝ๐˜๐—ถ๐—ผ๐—ป. Perhaps reducing endotoxins is one reason why adopting a low-carb or low-fat diet benefits health?โฃ

โฃ

  • Less starch on a low-carb diet means less endotoxin production, so there arenโ€™t a lot available to be absorbed from the increased fat intake.โฃ

โฃ

  • Less fat on a low-fat diet means less endotoxins are absorbed, so it doesnโ€™t matter how much endotoxins you produce from eating more starch.โฃ

โฃ

Either of these approaches have been associated with improved health relative to a Western diet, and less endotoxins ๐˜ค๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ๐˜ญ๐˜ฅ ๐˜ฃ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ข ๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ๐˜ข๐˜ด๐˜ฐ๐˜ฏ ๐˜ธ๐˜ฉ๐˜บ.โฃ
