Georgia State University researchers found that emulsifiers, commonly found in processed foods lead to inflammation with in the gut and changes to the gut microbiome. Emulsifiers are used to make the ingredients mix and combine. This new finding may help us understand the enormous number of colon cancer cases each year. With nearly 150 thousand new cases of colon cancer each year, and with colon cancer is the third most common cancer of those that affect both men and women. We know that the gut biome is made up of over 100 trillion different microorganisms, all with an important job to do. This is just one more argument against eating packaged and processed foods. Eat fresh fruits and veggies, lean meats sparingly, and whole grains. Your guts will thank you.
