Robert Lustig, MD: the Pesky molecule Fructose effects mitochondrial function and alters Microbiome!
Short excerpt from a January 28, 2024 YouTube video in which Robert Lustig discusses how dietary fructose negatively impacts brain-related physiology: he links fructose to impaired mitochondrial function, altered glutamine synthetase and insulin signaling, inhibited leptin signaling, and changes to the gut microbiome that reduce anti-inflammatory short-chain fatty acids and afferent vagal neurotransmission — mechanisms that may alter brain function.
