Sugar-Free Diets Disrupted Gut Microbiome and Metabolism A 16-week sucrose-free, low-fat diet study presented at ENDO 2026 found mice developed insulin resistance, impaired glucose tolerance, gut microbiome imbalance, intestinal inflammation, and fatty liver disease signs despite no weight gain or calorie difference. Host Dave Asprey breaks down why eliminating sugar entirely may be more detrimental than previously thought, the gut-bacteria-to-metabolism cascade that explains the metabolic damage, and why balanced nutrition matters more than simply removing sugar from your stack. Sources: https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2026/06/260614011843.htm https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/how-eliminating-sugar-may-alter-the-gut-microbiome-mouse-study https://nypost.com/2026/06/13/health/going-sugar-free-can-mess-with-your-gut-and-metabolism/ ~~  Taurine Did Not Boost Acute Aerobic Performance A randomized, triple-blind, cross-over study of 16 physicall
