Lipopolysaccharide-Induced Inflammation 😱

We know beneficial gut bacteria can crowd out opportunistic bacteria; however, LPS-induced inflammation can disrupt this balance, favouring the growth of harmful bacteria.

Remember, gut dysbiosis can lead to various gastrointestinal diseases, including;

• Bacterial infections like H. pylori and C. difficile.
• Small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO).
• Inflammatory bowel diseases, like ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease.
• General digestive difficulties, like diarrhea, constipation and gas.

LPS-induced inflammation is actually an immune response intended to deal with bacterial threats; however, if left uncontrolled, it can cause significant damage.
