High-Protein Diets and Gut Health Risks

Behind the aesthetic promise of the high-protein diet (leaner limbs, glossier hair, the sacred metabolic boost), there’s a quieter story playing out in #Gut Health In short: your microbiome wants a buffet, not a single-food obsession. And when the fiber’s missing, things go downhill—fast. “When intake goes above 2gms per kg of body weight, it can overwhelm digestion and produce harmful byproducts in the colon. Without fiber to balance it, excess protein ferments poorly, also leading to bloating, migraines, and disrupts the microbial ecosystem completely.” https://www.vogue.com/art..
