Multiple studies show that "naked" sugar can lead to dybiosis in the gut and raise LPS (endotoxin), leading to inflammation and IR (PMIDs: 32397233,34201938).
We can't find evidence that holds up here. Proponents are reasoning from mechanism or analogy rather than direct human data, and the most credible skeptics raise objections we can't dismiss.

Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.
Bookmarking — the dossier-vs-overview split is the right call. Most of the time I want overview; sometimes I want receipts.
Would love a "what would change this verdict" RSS feed. Sign me up if it exists.
Processed sugar stripped naked sucrose causes dispiosis at the level of your gut. Overgrowth especially if gram negative bacteria leads to increase in something called lipopolyaccharide or endotoxin that seeps into your bloodstream and the resulting inflammation from increased levels of LPS can worsen can add fuel to the fire of metabolic dysfunction and insulin resistance.
