Third barrier is TH17 cell: keep the bacteria from entering into the blood stream #leakygutdiet
Short YouTube explainer (Dr. Ron Najafi) about the gut's immunologic barrier: TH17 cells (which produce IL-17) act as a ‘mop-up’ crew preventing whole bacteria from entering the bloodstream. The speaker states that dietary sugar causes TH17 cells to disappear, TH1 (inflammatory) cells to replace them, and that this shift permits bacterial translocation and endotoxemia measurable after high-sugar meals.
