food additive Alerts Gut Flora

Postby Ali-Mar » Fri Jun 26, 2020 12:41 pm

"A common food additive, recently banned in France but allowed in the U.S. and many other countries, was found to significantly alter gut microbiota in mice"

How can we avoid this additive, where is it used?

Sadly you’d probably starve to death here in the states avoiding additives and food preservatives.

The things we allow in our "food", eh? If it's banned maybe they could incorporate a little uranium into the recipes. I'm sure that would give those candies a nice luster.

If you research about c.diff in food you will crap yourself (pun intended).
From organic grain right through to processed meat!

It is not about C Diff in food, the study is about additive in food that changes your gut flora for the worst, which promotes C Diff infection
