Scientists have named a food habit that is dangerous for immunity

Scientists called the eating habit dangerous for immunity, consisting of in the constant consumption of products containing fructose.

Scientists state that the eating habit, which consists in excessive consumption of fructose, contributes to the development of inflammatory reactions on the part of the immune system. The result of these processes is damage to cells and tissues, which disrupts the functioning of organs.

“Fructose increases the risk of developing obesity, type 2 diabetes and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease,” warn the authors of the study, scientists from Swansea University, the Institute Francis Crick in London and the University of Bristol after experiments with mice.

Scientists from Great Britain have determined that under the influence of high doses of fructose there is a change in cellular metabolic pathways, which activates processes that increase the level of inflammatory cytokines. The increased content of these components of the immune system is dangerous as a possible trigger for adverse changes, including the development of autoimmune pathologies.

Researchers stated that “the consumption of large doses of fructose reprograms cellular metabolic pathways, promoting glutaminolysis and oxidative metabolism.”

Speaking about food sources of fructose, scientists noted that it is contained in sweet drinks, numerous types of industrial delicacies, and semi-finished products. Experts recommend an extremely meticulous approach to the selection of products in the diet.
