Scientists say that fasting has almost eliminated "all the lesions of intestinal tissues and inflammation", which can be critical causes for gastrointestinal discomfort when a person suffers from food poisoning.
The research team explains its conclusion by declaring: "When the food is limited, the microbiome seems to sequester the nutrients that remain, preventing pathogenic agents from acquiring the energy they need to infect the host."
Some "Maistes": The team recognizes that I live quickly or not to prevent the symptoms of food intoxication, is itself a subject discussed in nutrition and g.I. drug. It is rare that any study is completely conclusive.
In addition, animal studies are not always part of similar human effects ... and, since you usually can not anticipate when you face food poisoning, how will you know when I'm fast?
Yet, maybe this study offers a solution when you feel a little stomach. It's always a good idea to talk to your doctor about the medical situation - but this research suggests in some cases, giving the belly a rest (while remaining hydrated in the meantime, we could add) can be a good medicine.
