@Insomniac said in Advice on lowering endotoxin:
This double-blind, randomized crossover trial demonstrated that a single meal high in saturated fat can impede attention
Attention: The conclusion is different from facts.
Excerpt:
In adjusted models, women had more difficulty distinguishing target stimuli from distractors after consuming the high-saturated-fat meal than they did after the oleic-sunflower-oil meal (B = 4.44, SE = 1.88, P = 0.02).
Context:
Endotoxemy is present before ingesting 2 kinds of fats.
My reading:
The end-conclusion of the study is not the same as the elements of the study:
The study says:
Saturated-fat intake individually and jointly [negatively] influence attention [among the sujects].
My comment:
In terms of conveyor, SFA is very poor. The level of capacity to carry away is proportionally higher when the fat is unsaturated.
=> If you want a transporter take oleic sunflower. Mind this point: oleic sunflower is 85 % MUFA and is poor in PUFA. Not the same kind as usual sunflower oil. Not all oleic sunflower oils have the same compo.
Note: The take away would have been still more important with omega-3. Not necessary but this is relevant in the event of a crisis. Good to know.
