Fueling Immunity: When Eating Becomes Therapy 🍽️💊🛡️
from Dr RR Baliga's "Got Knowledge Doc" Podkast · host MasterMedFacts LLC
A meal may be more than nutrition—it may be immunotherapy. 🍽️⚡ In a striking Nature study, T cells sampled just 6 hours after feeding showed enhanced metabolic fitness, cytokine production, and persistence compared to the fasted state. 🧠🔥 Mechanistically, chylomicron-derived lipids → LDLR → mTORC1 → protein translation, fueling durable immune function. Even more compelling: postprandial CAR-T cells demonstrated superior cytotoxicity. Clinical implication? Timing may matter—before vaccines, before cell therapy, before immune engagement. ⏱️ Feed. Fuel. Fight. 🛡️✨
