Endotoxin (LPS) may drive kidney damage in diabetes type II

[haidut]

Not much of a news, but I like adding to the, already big, pile of evidence that endotoxin/LPS is a major causal factor in virtually all chronic conditions that continue to mystify medicine. Since the study below mentions the compromised intestinal barrier in diabetes patients, interventions such as gelatin, magnesium, niacinamide, saturated fat, etc may help as those are all known to help restore the gut barrier.

Microalbuminuria and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus | DMSO

"...Results: hs-CRP, IL-6, LPS, DLA, DAO, and TLR4 were markedly increased in subjects with T2DM compared to the controls (P < 0.05 for all). Moreover, LPS was positively correlated with FBG, HbA1c, hs-CRP, IL-6, UAER, DLA, DAO, and TLR4 (P < 0.05 for all). In addition, TLR4 was positively correlated with UAER, hs-CRP, FBG, DLA, HbA1c, and LPS (P < 0.05 for all). In regression analyses, TLR4, LPS, HbA1c, and hs-CRP were independently associated with UAER (P < 0.05 for all), while FBG, LPS, TLR4, and hs-CRP (P < 0.05 for all) were found to be risk factors for microalbuminuria in T2DM. Conclusion: Intestinal integrity is compromised in subjects with T2DM, and the activation of LPS-TLR4 signaling might play an important role in the development of microalbuminuria in T2DM."

Peanuts
In a trial of 65 overweight men, consumption of a high-fat meal including peanuts lowered LPS levels compared to the same high-fat meal without peanuts. Consuming peanuts high in oleic acid had the strongest effect [69].​

What if the saturated fat constipates you? How does the gut barreir restore with constipation?

Niacinamide & saturated fat help limit lipolysis. Then are excess ffa's the cause permeable gut barrier?
