We all know that eating a diet that's rich in ultra-processed foods can be highly damaging to your health in the long term, especially when it comes to your heart health and weight management. However, new research indicates that the American diet (aka one that's filled with added sugars, hydrogenated oils, and saturated fat for example) may also pose a threat to your gut, too.
According to a new study from researchers at the Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis and the Cleveland Clinic, eating a diet that's high in sugar and fat can impair the immune system in the gut in both mice and humans. More specifically, this type of diet causes damage to Paneth cells, which are immune cells in the gut that help to regulate inflammation levels.
