Fatty food can restrict gut communication with body: Study

Updated:5 years, 10 months ago

New Delhi, Dec 29 (ANI): A recent study has suggested that food items containing more grease and fat can put the communication between intestine and rest of the human body to stop. A team of Duke Researchers has discovered that a high-fat meal completely shuts down the communication for a few hours. After they observed using the fish to examine cells that normally tell the brain and the rest of the body what's going on inside the gut after a meal. The cells they were looking at are the enteroendocrine cells, which occur sparsely throughout the lining of the gut, but play a key role in signalling the body about the all-important alimentary canal. In addition to releasing hormones, the cells also have a recently-discovered direct connection to the nervous system and the brain. These cells produce at least 15 different hormones to send signals to the rest of the body about gut movement, feelings of fullness, digestion, nutrient absorption, insulin sensitivity, and energy storage.
