From Arnold's Pump Club newsletter. A 22,000-Person Study Tested 150 Foods for Gut Health. Coffee Was A Big Winner. Scientists tested 150 foods for their impact on gut bacteria, and coffee ranked first by a wide margin, boosting levels of a bacterium called Lawsonibacter asaccharolyticus by 4.5 to 8 times compared to non-drinkers. Decaf produced nearly identical results, which point researchers toward coffee's polyphenols — specifically, chlorogenic acid — rather than caffeine as the likely driver. That bacterium helps your body produce butyrate, a compound your gut lining depends on to stay intact and keep inflammation in check, which may help explain coffee's long track record of health benefits.

Steven Oldner just now • General The Food That Helps You Absorb Fewer Calories If you've ever felt like calorie counting doesn't quite add up, you might be onto something. Research suggests that eating more fiber can reduce the number of calories your body absorbs. In a tightly controlled study, researchers fed participants two different diets with identical calories and macronutrient ratios. The only difference? One diet emphasized fiber-rich foods while the other mimicked a typical Western diet. On the high-fiber diet, participants lost an average of 116 extra calories per day. But here's what caught our attention: some individuals who ate more fiber showed a difference of nearly 400 calories daily. Same food intake, dramatically different absorption.
