[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Gut bacteria that feed on sugars. [/quote] This has got to be a huge part of it. One of my favorite facts about the human body is that - IIRC - we don’t know much about the gut microbiome. Some of the microbiota can’t even be cultured effectively yet because they don’t survive outside the body. Our nutrition is moderated through our gut biome, just like trees receive nutrients via fungi. Think about malabsorption issues that originate in the gut. If I’m trying to cut junk carbs, I’ll remind myself that some of the “demands” are quite probably coming from chemical signals in the gut. [/quote]
