Research.

Every peer-reviewed study on fascia in one place — graded for strength of evidence, summarised in plain language for clinicians, researchers, and curious readers.

We grade studies from A to 1A+++ using the Fascia Research Database rubric — 1A+++ is the strongest.

Ultra-processed foods and food additives in gut health and disease
Kevin Whelan, Aaron S Bancil, James O Lindsay, Benoit Chassaing
This narrative review examines the link between ultra-processed foods (UPFs), food additives, and gastrointestinal health. Research suggests that diets high in UPFs are associated with an increased risk of inflammatory…
