Herxheimer reactions, or Herx reactions for short, are when the bacteria and yeast within your intestinal tract die off, producing toxic by-products, like endotoxins, which your body must then process and excrete. This happens commonly during fasting or antibiotic treatment, both of which kill off bacteria, and produce these toxins. However, this is ultimately a good thing, as it will lower your total toxin load, prevent your body from having to continually detoxify on a daily basis, and instead free up energy to be used for other, longer-term physiological processes. Involved with this is also leaky gut syndrome, which allows these endotoxins to leak in, and is part of a vicious cycle that can keep your body running hard just to stand still. This video lays some groundwork for some future videos on fasting, and also contains a lot of helpful information about the gut microbiome. Enjoy!
