Gunnar_Zarncke comments on Calories per dollar vs calories per glycemic load: some notes on my diet

[Gunnar_Zarncke]

Interesting. One referenced study (Comparison with ancestral diets) gives an interesting interpreatation:

[This] suggests that in parallel with the bacterial effects of sugars on dental and periodontal health, acellular flours, sugars, and processed foods produce an inflammatory microbiota via the upper gastrointestinal tract, with fat able to effect a “double hit” by increasing systemic absorption of lipopolysaccharide. This model is consistent with a broad spectrum of reported dietary phenomena.
