> I'm more interested in how a high fat diet causes endotoxemia. Yes, this is in rodents and they don't say how many carbs in the high fat diet so of course it's invalid.
If they are rodent studies (rodents eat a lot of seeds/grain), and/or they don't define the carb energy content, they are indeed invalid. At the very least, we don't feed rodents refined carbs, in any case (high glycemic indes). Think about that, for a moment.
If you don't assess the methodology, you have no business trying to interpret the results.
