Hi there Ryan,

 

Your info sounds very interesting, but not being a scientist, I need a more of a

layperson's version. What are cecal contents, cadaverine and putrescine

concentrations, bacteroides, fusobacteria and anaerobic cocci, spermidine, and

polyamines?

 

Thanks,

JB

Almond Breeze contains carageenan, making it a no-no in my book Avoid

guar gum, carageenan, and large amounts of pectin. In cecal contents of

conventional rats, both guar gum and pectin led to the appearance of

cadaverine and to elevated putrescine concentrations in comparison with

the fiber-free control diet The cecal cadaverine concentration was

higher in pectin- than in guar-fed These experiments demonstrated the

ability of bacteroides, fusobacteria and anaerobic cocci to synthesize

high amounts of putrescine and spermidine. Calculations based on these

results suggest that the intestinal microflora are a major source of

polyamines in the contents of the large intestine.

 

Love,
