#1154: MM- Paleo Diet Changes Gut Bacteria
Category: Health

Description:

Is the paleo diet actually good for you?  This is Judy Gaman and this is your Stay Young Medical Minute.  New research out of four different research institutions in Australia suggest the paleo diet may be doing more harm than good.  They found that people following the diet had higher levels of trimethylamine N-oxide, a compound found in the gut that increases risk for heart disease.  One of the paleo diet’s ‘claims to fame’ was that it aided in gut health.  While it may help with some areas, it’s not helping the heart.  The diet eliminates whole grains, which are known to aid in heart health.  The researchers believe that the lack of consumption of these grains led to a change in the gut bacteria, increasing levels of trimethylamine N-oxide.  Talk to your doctor if you have questions about the paleo diet.  This Stay Young Medical Minute is brought to you by Executive Medicine of Texas, a leader in preventative and proactive medicine.
