The Narrative was all it's great for your microbiome eat as much of it as you can I ordered some like potato starch on Amazon and I was just throwing like resistant potato starch in my food and this is this is a totally different um a paradigm shift to say that that starches or or even do you think soluble fiber could also do this because it's going to feed the microbiome and it's going to increase gram negatives and then we can get into some discussion of soluble versus insoluble fiber but soluble fiber found in things like beans or grains lentils um this I I this is an interesting piece of like sort of the repeat philosophy that you've done so much good work to discuss with people and promulgate is this idea that like this is I think it's so fascinating that that increasing the microbiome in the colon the like the full number of bacteria and the populations may not always be a good thing for people because then you're getting more gram-negative bacteria which are going to turn over you're gonna get this lipopolysaccharide part of the cell wall also known as endotoxin and we know I don't think anyone would argue that when endotoxin moves across the colonic lining into the bloodstream or even the small intestinal lining into the bloodstream we have massive problems yeah
