Endotoxins - another microbiota issue?

Quote from Armin on February 3, 2026, 7:42 amQuote from Joe2 on February 3, 2026, 1:52 amI find it interesting that a certain doctor is adamant about spending one's money and focus on ridding one's house/dwelling of mold (and for good reason) but fails to address the elephant in the room endotoxin problem residing in their own bowels.
Not to repeat myself but it seems his roundabout way of fixing the microbiome via the liver is much longer than it needs to be and haphazard at best.
Imagine your septic tank or plumbing system is backing into your house daily and you say "once I get more workers to clean up the mess, the issue will go away."
It's futile and a complete waste of time/resources to not address this shit show.
It's almost like certain practitioners don't want a quick fix, otherwise how will they hack their wares?
I don't think he knows how to fix the microbiome and I didn't either to be honest.

"address this shit show."
Lactobacillus species and their metabolites (postbiotics) act as biofilm disruptors by producing organic acids and biosufactants, which prevent adhesion, interfere with bacterial communication (quorum sensing), and break down the protective extracellular matrix, making pathogens vulnerable, with specific strains like L. rhamnosus showing strong anti-biofilm effects, especially against oral pathogens and harmful gut bacteria.
These postbiotics make it into circulation where they potentially disrupt biofilms in other parts of the body.
Apparently postbiotics survive cooking so if one was worried about infection/spoilage or live cultures, you could kill off the microbes and still get much of the benefit.
