The thing that stands out as different between 'thin crust' and 'hand tossed' is the dough conditioners. As most of the other ingredients are in foods I eat without issues.I already am suspicious of 'Sodium Stearoyl Lactylate' (emulsifier)https://t.co/VmUrNWpMNo https://t.co/7KTEBnJkeL


I need to make a 'real' pillsbury cresent roll using whole grain flour and try to do a double blind to see which one gives me the shits.https://t.co/x8EH2ZndTw

The last time I spiraled into a major depression was when I had been ordering a lot of dominos due to struggling to use a shared kitchen.https://t.co/rcL5ePANDY

It'd be funny if an emulsifier in Domino's drove my depression by killing gut bacteria."In fact, Domino’s Pizza has been reaping the benefits of cloud kitchens for years."https://t.co/Y1vmVZgANbIt's free real estate https://t.co/VFra8nzyhO https://t.co/1XLEkLgkl6


If you squint, 90% of the grocery system is actually a secondary effect of land developers trying to turn a profit off of commercial space. That dynamic didn't occur in the boonies. There's was no money to be made leasing grocery store space. Now there is: https://t.co/AYQD4iEWpV

The calcium propinate (preservative) is tied to a microbiota fermentation product, but I'm on the fence about that being a cause of autism. https://t.co/IK9A4eguJ3I speculate a healthy gut can convert it to propionic acid, so symptom of gut dysbiosis? https://t.co/qOG4hTR82E

It's possible that bile acid problems could prevent this from happening?"The Panel noted that sodium propionate, calcium propionate and potassium propionate will be dissociated in the gastrointestinal tract into propionate and their relevant cations." https://t.co/ieyBQZu4z2 https://t.co/X3MLbe9FxG


Which... if bile is important for propionate metabolism, it might explain why we see autism oddness there."We identified changes in bile acid and tryptophan metabolism as putative mechanisms underlying GI dysfunction in these animals."https://t.co/61itQwegjT

The reason why I am looking at emulsifiers as possibly being problematic is because of bile acid interactions. So perhaps it's not a problem unless you combine the two, and are already at risk of some kind of lipid metabolism associated disorder?If so, how would you reverse it?

If it is the emulsifier disrupting butyrate production, I should start putting collagen peptides back into my daily rotation.https://t.co/uwVpHndN7M

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

Ideally, I'd find a way to consume the emulsifier without it destroying my bowels. Clearly not everyone is struggling with it like me. Might be tied to all the inflammatory disease genetics? https://t.co/AGWpT2livw

I need a place I can send stool samples to to get clinical measurements of mucus and bowel related health.I think I can experimentally test this mucus emulsifier oddity with a formal double blind by creating 3 different recipes of Danish.https://t.co/PB42mruY97

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


Some other interesting emulsifiers to look for.https://t.co/diPehmAIup

Makes me wonder if this is just sodium related problems tied to gut bacteria and bile salts.Mouse study on a sodium channel mutation suggests autism related problems https://t.co/bIzGEPmBgC and has previously been fingered as tied to GI issues there https://t.co/D0zSBOXyqV

Looks like a number of SNPs in my 23andMe have results there. Gonna have to dig in.https://t.co/UzAR1glwdQ

Huh. So does bile salt and sodium levels contribute to pain sensation?"Best known popularly for explaining why some street performers feel absolutely no pain, variations in the SCN9A gene can play a role in at least four types of conditions"https://t.co/iKAaQeGdGt

Oh. Damn."Fibromyalgia symptoms were significantly associated with HCV and NASH cirrhosis and with psychiatric symptoms. Future work should focus on the underlying pathophysiology and management of widespread pain in patients with cirrhosis."https://t.co/C44v8lSHfy

Looks like someone else suspected SCN9A's involvement in mucus related problems tied to IBD in a preliminary study. They tested a ton of genes, but I can't actually see where it shows up in their results. https://t.co/yv31APTSpq

Something neat I wanna try: make pizza using a vacuum chamber to possibly avoid any need for an emulsifier.https://t.co/fksyEDvuc4

Trying to sleep, when I see a video about mixing water and oil together without an emulsifier.It turns out dissolved gas molecules have an impact on oil mixing.So if taking air out (degassing) causes more mixing, what happens if you aerate?https://t.co/1HFNeUpSoj

And possibly find out a way to avoid needing the yeast or any kind of chemical riser?https://t.co/vwPPlgN8Mp

Replace Eggs with cheap emulsifiers, what could go wrong? [APR 2022]https://t.co/sRXe2UrmtiThe FDA says it's safe of course.https://t.co/PoVdhur3RF https://t.co/hCZWjaq6yk


Xantham Gum is fine. I'm sure its fine. Don't worry, its fine bruh. It's FDA approved. Its safe. It should be ok. Don't worry about the scary name. It can't hurt you. It's in everything and we're not all dying or anything... https://t.co/c1xAnto8e2

Eat more fucking corn syrup bruh. Pump your ass full of Xantham Gum. Who cares how it being a chemical thickening agent produced by fermentation distorts other gut bacteria. Bruh, chill.https://t.co/cQcpi5MhnD

Heath disparity says what?https://t.co/ST0ZYSURRx

So what you'll find is that Xantham gum with the right gut bacteria will improve health parameters because it promotes some SCFAs, but with the wrong gut bacteria it will drive inflammation.https://t.co/p44ZjK2txmWe'll get mixed results.

Interestingly, GF has been having weird allergies to pizza since her gut was cleared out thanks to the doctors idiocy.We've been experimenting with tons of pizza options from local stores to try and narrow it down. Appears to be gluten tolerance issues, but worse when dominoes.

"In a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled crossover study of individuals with self-reported non-celiac gluten sensitivity, we found fructans to induce symptoms, measured by the GSRS-IBS." https://t.co/e32vgiIv7cHmm.https://t.co/JgpwM2hzm5

Dominoes again last night. Made me snore so bad I woke up my GF. She was also feeling bad from the Dominoes.Decided to explore them in depth. Grok was very useful in breaking down the very large ingredient list. https://t.co/yxpJeShVht

The bad sleep my GF gets compounds high BP responses from dominos (and my snoring makes it more difficult). But fascinatingly if she can sleep BP effect goes away. She feels like shit for a while after.Fairly constant pattern. Doesn't seem to matter what kind of crust tho. https://t.co/qCPjNBSJ5Z


Authentic Wasabi Paste + Fire Cider mix neutralizes the horrible snoring I got and while it doesn't go away entirely, it seems to be bearable for her after.My snoring coincides with pretty extreme dreams. For me it's entirely the carb load.
