How badly do you wanna go to mars?"It is commonly theorized that in the nonindustrialized world, bacterial contamination from soil or feces brings traces of B12 to plant foods in sufficient amounts to prevent B12 deficiency"https://t.co/zwndJ60vlO
Tired: Simulated human stomach and intestines to study IBS related diseases.Wired: Simulated cow stomach and intestines to be able to produce cobalamin, L-ascorbic acid, and methane on mars so we don't have to eat feces.https://t.co/AHbo8AzVbB
According to a bunch of sources listed in this vegan subreddit, most cows are also supplimented with B12. https://t.co/KK6CJ5aQQJ
I guess the only logical answer is to create bacterial bio-reactors using 3d printed viruses that inject certain machinery into bacteria that tailor them for production of raw nutrients.https://t.co/nHmfIROivM

Seems to me that living in space for an extended period of time might require the manufacturing of pickled liceloaf, and having all the duplicAnts have the 'no taste' trait.https://t.co/c3ZSSpXL0Hhttps://t.co/fjo2mFXVTa
Still having a lot of luck with 500mg Taurine helping with focus and clarity.I noticed it interact with my taste / pallet in an interesting way. Does anybody else notice changes in what they enjoy when taking it?Please DM me about it so not to pollute other's ideas.
Some of those citations are BS."Chronic inflammatory bowel diseases such as Crohn’s Disease affect the ileum and impair B12 absorption. These diseases are only seen in people who eat animal products and they improve when meat is removed from the diet." https://t.co/hzV1KLR025
More appropriate to say:These diseases often occur when there isn't enough fiber in diet, and western meat eating trends avoid the fibrous material in organ meats (collagen), so there is a lower production of anti-inflammatory SCFAs like butyrate.https://t.co/grcrKwgShC
Piss vegans off by talking about collagen as source of fiber.Piss carnivores off by talking about fermenting stuff to make B12 and removing oxalates/phytic acid.Piss people who eat food off by talking about how hibernating bears live for months without food.
I wanna pretend I'm vegan and talk to one of those people who talk about the length of the digestive tract and the size of or canine teeth as evidence that we should eat meat...And piss them off by pointing out how that just suggests we're predisposed to be cannibals.😥
I was talking to a vegan once about how meat cause cholestrol placks. I mentioned how my cholesterol levels improved by taking niacin and eating more cholesterol and taking black cohosh to improve my testosterone levels by making more estrogen.
Cannibalism? But muh prions!Well let me tell you about how you can protect yourself from prion diseases by ensuring proper protein synthesis via gut bacteria and boosting microglial effectiveness via immune function.https://t.co/XpB5s15U83https://t.co/E77w76eqxd
"showed that butyrate treatment significantly suppressed lysolecithin-induced demyelination and enhanced remyelination in an organotypic slice culture in the presence or absence of microglia, suggesting that butyrate may affect oligodendrocytes directly."https://t.co/z18R1tLvoA
I want a game with the poop physics of scum, but actually using it to create fertilizer. https://t.co/ldvR7uLjnV
I wanna make a vegan cat foot that involves relying on chitinase production of gutflora to allow cats to eat mushroom based taurine.Everybody assumes that the chitinase is for eating insects, forgets that it's also important for mushroom consumption.https://t.co/1m6NyRNLXe
Funguses produce chitinase. Does that mean they too fed off of insects?No. They likely just ate each other.https://t.co/7tOi2ZeHaT
There's this assumption that the rapid rise of chitenase production was due to being insectivore. But an alternate explanation is that the rise of mushrooms evolving the ability to break down lignin (tree/plant structural material) meant eating mushrooms became quite useful.
One of my favorite things is thinking about the guy setting up this time-lapse for showing slime-mold sporation, and then that damn snail coming along and eating them all instead XDhttps://t.co/kLgo8E5y67
Slime Mold can produce chitenase!"it is now emerging that for several bacterial pathogens and symbionts, chitinases may be important as virulence or symbiotic factors as much as, or rather than, being important for chitin metabolism." https://t.co/Tp0UvfA8c1
A medical hypothesis: M.S. as an autoimmune response system gone wrong."B cells produce anti-ATR antibodies as an autoimmune response [...] thus limiting production of AdoCbl, one of the two bioactive forms of vitamin B12."https://t.co/tl5gBx80ZWhttps://t.co/9JJQca9lwc
I learned from a book on milling grain that the wheat germ is (supposedly) high in B12 and Zinc, along with some healthy fats, but is often thrown away because it isn't shelf stable and clogs up the mill stones.I wonder if B12 shows up on an HPLChttps://t.co/CNCZK9noVU
I bet agglutin issue doesn't occur if fermented."People with Crohn’s disease are especially vulnerable to vitamin B12 deficiency, since the distal ileum is inflamed in this condition and may require months to years to recover the ability to absorb B12."https://t.co/pln6PkM0sj
Naturally fermented Lentils reduce the impacts of naturally occuring lectins. Seems to be true in soy also.https://t.co/2IAusIIc5WTL;DR: "Wheatbelly" is just because we don't ferment our grains right? heh.https://t.co/CCtfi05Ff1
"N-acetyl-D-glucosamine in the natural environment of wheat is found in the chitin of insects, and the cell membrane of yeast & bacteria"https://t.co/a1k0I4VvslWhat a small world.
Someone found a lactic-acid bacteria that prevents agglutin associated "wheatbelly" in chickens.https://t.co/sPOGNGU3g6Did you know that most traditional sour doughs are fermented with lactic acid bacteria from the environment?
Prediction: commensal lactic acid bacteria are able to short circuit the wheat germ agglutin processes that knock out two of the main components of breast milk, but die off in the case of crohn's inflammatory associated processes.https://t.co/uvHy4gm3Dahttps://t.co/ZgeljVzd3j
If I squint at my diet, I'm trying to recreate a bacterial profile that influences the colostrum production of a human mother's breast milk while trying to avoid the high levels of immune cells seen in bovine Colostrum which shape bacterial profile toward a cow's.
Would be really funny of 'ancestral diets' actually included bread and grains to a great degree, and people masturbating's about meat based diets don't realize they're actually seeing the result of industrialized food practices absolutely butchering our food's dietary profile.
What's fermented foods, precious?What's fermented foods, eh?https://t.co/nYgzhC376WI likes em' raw. https://t.co/34rPdoKxK0
Is that "ancestral grains" just marketing wank? If you do the same thing to them as we do to most wheat products, you'd end up with the same sort of nutrient deficiencies, no?I suddenly have a lot more respect for bob's red mill.https://t.co/YaHzKL1Lqn
"In 1947, decades before white flour came into disfavor, Mrs. Orton wrote “Cooking With Wholegrains” [...] developed using stone-ground grains from the water-powered gristmill in Weston and were tested in the wood-burning stove in Mrs. Orton’s kitchen."https://t.co/GygMntYFvR
Silicon valley hipsters can suck my sweet & sour balls of dough spiked with cardamom and served with a side of lingon berry.That is to say, I made fermented swedish braided cardamom bread from scratch 27 years ago. https://t.co/BNEAZBpFIH https://t.co/Ia99JPtx2O
Something that has been bothering me lately is I remember watching how to make real Danish pastries on PBS and eating home made ones, and I can't help but balk at how store brands aren't even real food by comparison.https://t.co/6FfRSYhyX5 https://t.co/AotY08fvX8
I picked an ingredient at random."Dietary Emulsifier Sodium Stearoyl Lactylate Alters Gut Microbiota in vitro and Inhibits Bacterial Butyrate Producers"https://t.co/YhMmPHpapawell fuck me.
"Recently, research has emerged that ties the consumption of additives to health markers through the gut microbiota. Dietary emulsifiers in particular have been proposed to display a destabilizing impact on gut health."https://t.co/yTaIppXEjD
"study describes the effects of five dietary emulsifiers: CMC, P80, soy lecithin, sophorolipids, and rhamnolipids […] found dietary emulsifiers to significantly alter human gut microbiota toward a composition and functionality with potentially higher pro-inflammatory properties"
bile salts in the stomach make a huge difference in emulsifier activity too. There is so much we really don't know about food.https://t.co/PZhvPEeWsaI should learn to make hollandaise. https://t.co/iPtLmGC3PH
I wonder how many food additives and perversions of classic recipes have been done for the sake of shelf-life, color, taste simulation, and cost effectiveness.Did you know wheat germ taste good? You don't need to add as much sugar?https://t.co/x8Fzq53pXk
Higher proteins levels in the germ lead directly to increased Maillard reactions, so you don't need as much sugar to get a delicious rich taste.https://t.co/s3JPUaTgxb
So modern knockoff 'danish' pastries are loaded with sugar, corn, various seed oils, and emulsifiers in a mixture that almost perfectly ruins butyrate production. Fucked. https://t.co/PB42mruY97

And you don't get any of proteins, fermentation byproducts, or polyphenol profile of berry filling. Even the ones that have fruit in them are loaded with pectins (sourced from citrus peels?) and cheaper corn based syrup/flavorings to simulate the fruit flavor,It's a fake out.
Would be really funny if millennials who are eating out all the time due to precarity are actually getting healthier food simply due to restaurants being under incentives to make 'real food™'.https://t.co/sJTGeevucD

TIL rats fed collagen peptides get fat."In conclusion, these studies demonstrated that a high intake of the collagen peptides Tn-SCP and Ss-SCP could shift the profiles of SCFA metabolism via altering the gut microbiota."https://t.co/3Uu1qXhnVshttps://t.co/9aON7Q6MDA
A medications that's been shown through a random control trial to improve autism symptoms has also been shown to directly impact the immune system as it relates to collagen synthesis which I've traced to gut bacteria common to both. https://t.co/LQUBscjyohhttps://t.co/42W3neTbXU
That study design seems flawed? They don't appear to increase the calories of the control group, only giving them saline in place of the collagen peptides.Did they Foie gras their liver? Or do rat livers behave differently from humans?https://t.co/39VOh4mfVK
I've started putting collagen peptides in my protein shake in hopes that it will increase butyrate. I may be reducing my chances of liver & colon cancer at the cost of pancreatic cancer risk. Good thing I got hardcore pancreas/insulin management genes.https://t.co/CxEOwNlPfA
