The evidence is convergent. Multiple independent sources reach the same conclusion, the underlying mechanism is well-characterized, and even the field's most cautious voices treat it as worth doing.
when you taken fiber that that becomes the food source for the microbiome that uses it to make these byproducts that are called short chain fatty acids right you know about yeah and one of the most important ones is butyrate
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.
so in this case when we talk about carbohydrates we're really talking about these fibers and so our microbiome is uniquely positioned to metabolize fibers a wide variety of which we actually can't even metabolize ourselves and um fiber is a one of the primary prebiotics that feeds kind of all of your strains and so you're right when we think about carbohydrate Metabolism from the perspective of the microbiome it's really about these fibers and so they are there are um kind of primary and secondary fermenters in the microbiome that can metabolize these fibers into certain short chain fatty acids which then become precursors for the ultimate short chain fatty acid which is butyrate
