Sugar drives the overgrowth of specific bacteria.
Sugar may disrupt the community of bacteria living in the gut, thereby depleting crucial immune cells and causing obesity down the line, a new mouse study suggests.
This, in turn, caused the mice to become obese and develop features of"metabolic syndrome," a cluster of conditions — such as high blood pressure, high blood sugar and insulin resistance — that collectively raise the risk of heart disease, stroke and type 2 diabetes.
In their recent mouse study, the researchers placed mice on a high-sugar, high-fat diet for a month to see how their gut bugs might change. They found that the diet spurred the growth of a bacterium called Faecalibaculum rodentium, which essentially crowded out the SFB growing in the mouse gut, depleting its numbers.
