Spanish term or phrase: leucocitosis post prandial

Cuando se ingieren demasiados alimentos cocidos se genera una respuesta del organismo; éste al desconocer el alimento lo confunde con un enemigo (bacteria, toxina) y se prepara para defenderlo. Esto ocasiona un aumento de glóbulos blancos, y produce signos de intolerancia, al mismo tiempo que se restan energías y elementos al sistema inmunológico."
