Chowing Down On Meat, Dairy Alters Gut Bacteria A Lot, And Quickly
Looks like Harvard University scientists have given us another reason to walk past the cheese platter at holiday parties and reach for the carrot sticks instead:Ummm, no it didn't.
Switching to a diet packed with meat and cheese — and very few carbohydrates — alters the trillions of microbes living in the gut, scientists Wednesday in the journal Nature.
The change happens quickly. Within two days, the types of microbes thriving in the gut shuffle around. And there are signs that some of these shifts might not be so good for your gut: One type of bacterium that flourishes under the meat-rich diet has been linked to inflammation and intestinal diseases in mice.
...
In particular, microbes that "love bile" — the Bilophila — started to dominate the volunteers' guts during the animal-based diet. Bile helps the stomach digest fats. So people make more bile when their diet is rich in meat and dairy fats.
A study last year found that blooms of Bilophila cause inflammation and colitis in mice.
If you actually read the damn study- you will see that the mice were bred to produce colitis symptoms.
They are deficient in IL-10, an immune molecule.
Those Il-10 deficient mice got colitis from a high fat diet and Bilophila bacteria overgrowth.
Normal mice DID NOT.
