Interesting first talk from the Kenneth Rainin Symposium. Dietary emulsifiers carboxymethylcellulose and polysorbate-80, induced low-grade intestinal inflammation and obesity/metabolic syndrome in wild-type hosts and promoted robust colitis in mice. https://t.co/Tm8k37x1xl

@zinocker @ggkuhnle Here also, in addition to highlight these limits in our study, we are working on follow study to investigate these important point. And in both mice and in vitro, we have found similar effects for doses 10 times lower ;-) https://t.co/kwK0TvhMjj https://t.co/Ms4Ji2zTyh
