  1. Obesity: The Western diet, high in calorie-dense and nutrient-poor foods, contributes to weight gain and obesity. Excessive consumption of processed foods, sugary snacks, and fast food can lead to an imbalance in energy intake and expenditure, ultimately resulting in weight gain and obesity.

  2. Cardiovascular Disease: A diet high in saturated fats, trans fats, cholesterol, and sodium, commonly found in processed and fried foods, can increase the risk of cardiovascular diseases such as coronary artery disease, heart attacks, and strokes. These unhealthy fats can raise LDL cholesterol levels and contribute to arterial plaque buildup, leading to atherosclerosis and cardiovascular events.

  3. Type 2 Diabetes: The Western diet, characterized by its high sugar and refined carbohydrate content, can lead to insulin resistance and impaired glucose metabolism, increasing the risk of type 2 diabetes. High intake of sugary beverages, processed snacks, and desserts can contribute to elevated blood sugar levels and insulin resistance over time.

  4. Hypertension: Excessive consumption of sodium, commonly found in processed and fast foods, can contribute to high blood pressure (hypertension). High sodium intake leads to water retention and increased blood volume, putting strain on the heart and blood vessels, and increasing the risk of hypertension and cardiovascular complications.

  5. Cancer: Some components of the Western diet, such as processed meats, high-fat dairy products, and sugary beverages, have been linked to an increased risk of certain types of cancer, including colorectal, breast, and prostate cancer. Additionally, the low intake of fruits, vegetables, and fiber-rich foods in the Western diet may contribute to a higher risk of cancer development.

  6. Digestive Disorders: The lack of dietary fiber and nutrients in the Western diet can contribute to digestive disorders such as constipation, diverticulosis, and inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). Low fiber intake reduces stool bulk and transit time, leading to constipation and increasing the risk of diverticulosis and other gastrointestinal issues.

  7. Mental Health Disorders: Emerging research suggests that a diet high in processed foods, sugar, and unhealthy fats may be associated with an increased risk of mental health disorders such as depression and anxiety. Nutrient deficiencies, inflammation, and oxidative stress resulting from a poor diet may contribute to alterations in brain function and mood regulation.

  8. Reduced Lifespan: Overall, adherence to a Western diet has been associated with a shorter lifespan and increased mortality from chronic diseases. The combination of unhealthy dietary components, sedentary lifestyle, and other lifestyle factors associated with the Western diet contributes to a higher risk of premature death.

Impact of western diet on Conditions from US National Library of Medicine

A higher number indicates impact on more bacteria associated with the condition and confidence on the impact.

We have X bacteria high and Y low reported. We find that the modifier reduces some and increases other of these two groups. We just tally: X|reduces + Y|Increase = Positive   X|increases + Y|decrease = Negative.

Benefit Ratio:
Numbers above 0 have increasing positive effect.
Numbers below 0 have increasing negative effect.
