Let’s explore the complications of excessive intake of titanium dioxide as a filler in your supplements and foods. At small amounts, the body is likely able to deal with this toxic filler, however, if used daily, a low level of chronic exposure will all add up, possibly acting as a threat to our health. ⁣⁣

Key Facts

👎🏽MAY PROMOTE DIABETES:⁣⁣
Oral administration of Titanium dioxide nanoparticles induces insulin resistance in mouse liver, shown by increased phosphorylation of IRS1 (Ser307) and reduced phosphorylation of Akt (Hu et al., 2015).⁣⁣
⁣⁣
👎🏽DISRUPTS THE GUT:⁣⁣
Disruption of gut homeostasis due to chronic exposure to TD may prime the host for conditions such as inflammatory bowel diseases and other gut related disorders. TD might favor the growth of biofilm producing bacteria (Pinget et al., 2019).⁣⁣
⁣⁣
👎🏽HARMS THE MITOCHONDRIA:⁣⁣
We ALL should mind our mitochondria, if we’re striving for optimal energy levels. ⁣⁣
Unfortunately, titanium dioxide may impair liver mitochondrial function eliciting toxic effects on hepatocytes (Natarajan et al., 2015).⁣⁣
