Nettle (Urtica cannabina L.) polysaccharides as a novel dietary supplement: enhancing systemic antioxidant status via modulation of the gut–liver axis

mycolabadmin

This study found that nettle polysaccharides, especially at lower doses, act as a natural supplement that boosts the body’s antioxidant defenses. The supplement works by promoting beneficial bacteria in the gut, which produce helpful metabolites that signal to the liver to enhance protective antioxidant enzymes. These findings suggest nettle polysaccharides could be a promising natural ingredient for health-conscious food products aimed at maintaining metabolic wellness.

Interventions targeting the gut-liver axis: A potential treatment strategy for metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease

Your gut bacteria play a crucial role in liver health. When harmful bacteria build up in your gut, they can trigger liver inflammation and fat accumulation, leading to fatty liver disease. Researchers found that simple lifestyle changes like intermittent fasting, eating certain foods that feed good bacteria, and maintaining a healthy diet can restore healthy gut bacteria, strengthen your intestinal barrier, and reduce liver disease. This gut-focused approach could offer new ways to prevent and treat fatty liver disease beyond current treatments.
