Inhibiting the negative impact of meals easily: endotoxins, inflammation, immune activation, oxidation, endothelial injury, allergy, etc.

Specially High-Fat+High-Carb low quality food.

What works (PROVEN) well and inexpensively:

1. bioflavonoids: Orange juice has shown to prevent all these negative changes without an impact in glucose levels. You can get concentrated bioflavonoids (look for hesperidin and naringin mainly). They inhibit inflammation, promote tolerance, reduce glucose, etc. Some inhibit mast cell activation.

2. resveratrol: 100mg with grape polyphenols does it very well with additional benefits like inhibiting inflammation and allergy, quenching radicals, antifungal, etc.
You need to take what you choose with you main meals, specially the ones that combine high fat or high fat with high carb.

These are only 2 of various possibilities, to get you started. You don't need expensive or biased protocols for this.

Now, your intestinal health is extremely extremely important. For this, I will post some info on the stupidity of avoiding calcium and the most definitive protocol for gut health I developed based on research and patents. This targets inflammation, allergy, leaky gut, digestion, tolerance, inflammation, gut ecology, etc.

Just ONE reference of many to get you started:

Orange juice neutralizes the proinflammatory effect of a high-fat, high-carbohydrate meal and prevents endotoxin increase and Toll-like receptor expression1,2,3

Looking forward to more info on intestinal health LF.

I'm an OJ fiend recently cut it out to follow gaps intro. Noticing less energy but much improved teeth (although this could be from diet/supp). Plan on re-incorporating once on full gaps. I've read Peat work showing it has the same properties you identify and how drinking it with bacon and other lower grade meats is straight damage control and mitigates any detrimental effects of the bacon including nitrites and non organic etc. I tend to not stick with one philosophy entirely when it comes to nutrition so I was relieved Mcbride okays orange juice. Others still have major problems with fructose but I don't believe the hype. Maybe CS will chime in on Fructose for us. I know he believes that if our grand parents etc had them as part of their diet (in this case oranges) then they should be well tolerated but if you're family is from a non-tropical mountainous region near the poles not so much.

EcGc is anti-candida and is 100 times more effective as an anti-oxidant and at protecting genetic material than vitamin C. This is one to add to the list and an affordable supplement as well.

Also, I wonder if a resveratrol dosage a few hours away from food still has a small effect or does it have to be swallowed concurrently to have an effect?

I'm looking forward to LF's post on gut health, as well.

Does anyone know if grapefruit juice has similar effects to OJ?

Little Fighter - Always love your posts. You've helped me tremendously with my gut health through the years on here. I'm anxiously awaiting your conclusions here & thinking of reincorporating OJ to see what kind of effect it may have on me.

So what product contains grape polyphenols? Any grape product?

What do we think about whole navel oranges vs. OJ?

Cool post LittleFighter. Looking forward to your thoughts about calcium.

Re: OJ

Make sure you're making it yourself of course.
