The fibers or matrix that holds a biofilm bac...Jay,<br />The fibers or matrix that holds a biofilm bacterial community together is made of polysaccharides that can be different for each major species of bacteria in a biofilm, in the same way that different bacteria synthesize different polysaccharides (LPS) that are the different antigens of the bacteria.<br /><br />Humans and plants also coat the surfaces of individual cells and tissues with polysaccharides. In the case of humans, the polysaccharides are GAGs (glycosaminoglycans, e.g. heparin, chondroitin sulfate) and in plants they are pectins, xyloglucans, cellulose, etc. In most cases, including bacteria, the matrix is made of acidic polysaccharides.<br /><br />Humans can only produce enzymes to degrade starch (which is a storage polysaccharide in plants and animals). All other polysaccharides are soluble fibers that are digested in the colon by bacterial enzymes. The bacteria produce short chain fatty acids that are the major energy source for the colon.<br /><br />Biofilm polysaccharides can be digested only by enyzmes specific to each of hundreds of different polysaccharides. The links between the strands of polysaccharide are, however, made of common materials, either metal ions (calcium, magnesium, zinc, etc.) or proteins. Proteins bind to polysaccharides with a combination of common and unique bonds. The common bonds are typically through hydrophobic interactions between the hydrophobic sides of sugars and hydrophobic parts of protein amino acids, e.g. trytophan, tyrosine, arginine, lysine. PEG can break up these types of bonds and is used in total bowel irrigation prior to colonoscopy.<br /><br />The bottom line is that amylase won't impact biofilms, but chelators such as EDTA or large amounts of proteases can have some impact. In most cases a careful change of diet and exposure to lots of different bacteria to improve gut flora is a more sound approach to changing gut biofilms.<br /><br />Thanks for your comment/questions.Dr. Art Ayershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01727664149735013259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-196334975274806517.post-79945562098341701352010-12-02T20:21:52.062-07:002010-12-02T20:21:52.062-07:00great blog!

It seems to me that what is important in the first two weeks of the Eades 6-Week Cure Diet is lack of alcohol and other drugs that are hard on the liver, low carbs (especially those containing fructose), no grain and no vegetable oils. That leaves saturated fats in dairy and eggs, and olive oil. The shakes provide whey protein and leucine is added to avoid using muscle protein. Supplements provide necessary vitamins and minerals. There is one low carb meal a day to help the gut flora limp along as it is starved for carbs and gets used to a meat and veggies diet.<br /><br />Keep me posted.Dr. Art Ayershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01727664149735013259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-196334975274806517.post-12857874189631010972010-07-20T17:32:28.286-06:002010-07-20T17:32:28.286-06:00Dr Ayers...one more question on the diet.

I don't even think Enova is on the market anymore...what did you do with that recommendation, and the one about no caffeine! <br /><br />I don't know which will be harder...no caffeine the first two weeks (I'm going decaf) or no dairly the next two (it is a mainstay for me and so easy).Tanyanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-196334975274806517.post-8275848105746424982010-07-19T15:35:04.954-06:002010-07-19T15:35:04.954-06:00Hi Anna,
I think that all of your suggestions are ...Hi Anna,<br />I think that all of your suggestions are very useful for a low carb, high fat diet. The issue that is being addressed is destabilizing the existing gut flora, not supporting a gut flora appropriate to the new diet.<br /><br />I think that there is something special about the milk-derived whey protein shakes. Milk attacks most normal gut flora. Milk is adapted to inhibit the growth of all bacteria except the one or two species that stimulates the initial development of the gut and the gut-associated lymphatic tissue. <br /><br />Raw milk attacks adult gut flora and adult gut flora inactivates the anti-microbial components in milk. That is why a single bottle of formula increases the disease susceptibility of an otherwise exclusively breastfed baby -- the formula permits adult gut flora to take over the gut and inactivate subsequent breast milk.<br /><br />The point of the whey is to attack the existing gut flora and stimulate ejection of the damaged biofilms by the induced mild diarrhea. The disrupted gut flora are no longer able to contribute to the metabolic set point and change of weight is facilitated. It is also easier to reestablish the gut flora consistent with the new, low carb diet.<br /><br />To some extent raw egg whites would attack gut flora similarly to whey, but most people don't easily quaff slimy whites. Cooking inactivates most of the enzymes, iron chelators and vitamin sequestoring proteins in egg whites.<br /><br />So the point of the whey shakes is whey rather than protein.<br /><br />Note that I am adding a spin on the Eades 6 Week Cure diet that is not presented by the Drs. Eades. I am trying to explain additional reasons why it is effective.<br /><br />Thanks for the info and comments.Dr. Art Ayershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01727664149735013259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-196334975274806517.post-601985798213926452010-07-19T14:49:24.311-06:002010-07-19T14:49:24.311-06:00I've been giving the protein shakes some thoug...I've been giving the protein shakes some thought lately. If one does not have an issue with consuming raw eggs, is there any reason why whey protein powder must be used in the Eades 6 wk shakes (or any version of a protein shake), instead of say, 2-4 raw eggs or several raw egg yolks? <br /><br />That's how I've been making my "on-the-go" meals lately when the need arises. With just yolks I can use just a fork or spoon to mix them, as the yolks mix smoothly with little effort, but if I use whole raw eggs I use a hand-held blender to break up the thicker egg whites. I got this idea for "real food" shakes after flipping through Aajonus Vonderplanitz' interesting book, The Recipe For Living Without Disease. <br /><br />To the eggs I add various combinations of other ingredients to achieve different flavors, as well as probiotics, prebiotics, natural fats, fat soluble vitamins, an and so on, such as 1-3 tablespoons raw cream or TJ heavy cream (NOT "ultra-pasteurized"), a "glug" of raw whole milk, a 1/4 whole milk yogurt, some coconut milk, 1-2 tbl MCT oil (NOW brand, not Novartis' $$$ medical version), a heaping scoop of dark Dutched cocoa powder, a shot or two of cold espresso, a handful of frozen berries, and so on. If I used fruit I leave out the cocoa and coffee. <br /><br />One of my favorites is with yolks only (no whites), cream/milk, a touch of honey, and fresh nutmeg - far better than any store-bought egg nog.<br /><br />If I add supplements, I use inulin powder and/or pectin, a drop of K2 oil, d-Ribose, and sometimes Vit D drops. <br /><br />I add cold water or refrigerator tea (black, green, and/or herbal) and/or broken ice depending on the temp/ thickness/flavor I am after. <br /><br />I find these shakes are very fast to mix and clean-up (with practice), the sweetness level is easy to customize, they are much cheaper and certainly less processed than protein powders, and if the fat content is high enough they are very filling. I tend to use little or no sweetening (inulin powder is slightly sweet) for myself, but my son prefers them with a small amount of honey or maple syrup. Personally, I am not opposed to a small amount of Splenda-sweetened flavored syrups, either, but I don't generally use them for myself.<br /><br />What do you think of making meal replacement shakes with raw eggs/yolks for protein instead of powders?Annahttp://www.againstthegrainblog.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-196334975274806517.post-37608099774288358962010-07-19T13:58:49.922-06:002010-07-19T13:58:49.922-06:00Tanya,

I have been focusing on building and tiling a new shower and my garden (and blog) has suffered.<br /><br />I don't think that the details of the Eades 6-week Cure Diet are as important as the rationales. Unfortunately, I think that the whey shakes, although essentially synthetic and unnatural, are very effective in disrupting gut flora to shift a metabolic set point and to change to a new diet. The artificial sweeteners are just to make the whey shakes more palatable. Most people are used to sweet drinks and essentially all sweeteners are either of questionable safety, carbs or both. The only exception is Stevia, which is a protein, but their is a suggestion that sweeteners of any type may elevate carb responses, e.g. insulin increase, via their taste reception in addition to glucose transporters.<br /><br />Aside from the health risks of artificial sweeteners, I have a problem with their taste -- the lingering saccharine sweetness.<br /><br />I don't think that tolerating artificial sweeteners or doing without sweetening, or any of the problems associated with two weeks of a gut treatment diet is a big deal in order to switch to a new diet that is healthy and can be enjoyed and sustained. That basic, anti-inflammatory diet is powerful enough to tolerate all of the other contaminants in our foods. My impression is that most people follow the advice of the medical community, which encourages a disease-causing inflammatory diet, and then those same people obsess over environmental contaminants that have a very minor impact on health.<br /><br />Thanks for your thoughtful explanation.Dr. Art Ayershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01727664149735013259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-196334975274806517.post-33222010653406677002010-07-19T13:24:35.714-06:002010-07-19T13:24:35.714-06:00Anna
I appreciate your post. We have looked at th...Anna<br /><br />I appreciate your post. We have looked at the square foot gardening info before actually. But my recent surgeries/stroke sidelined our preparation for it. Also I work full time, and my husband basically ranches full time for his dad and cares for our children most of the time. We also have a business and church offices which take time. <br /><br />So while we have the space (but poor native soils), water (albeit we pay for it..we are arid here) etc it is not practical for us to grow enough to really be a main stay, canning, etc. Not to mention this year the grasshoppers ate our garden overnight, what little the girls/dad had planted. We are infested this year! <br /><br />I realize some may say my priorities are out of line but one can't garden in the dark...which is what it is when I get home from work and done with supper/dishes/prep for the next day. I spend my weekends on housework, time with my family, etc. I love to garden, flowers esp, but have had zero success in 15 yrs due to conditions and competition for the time and plants (hoppers!, horses out...etc!!) :-) If life allows, it would be a nice milestone to get a real garden going and growing next year.<br /><br />We have a grocery store in the town where I work, but it has limited offerings due to distance, volume, etc. There is a farmers market but again limited by our population and climate and the hoppers this year. The nearest chain supermarket is 100 miles. I went Friday and spent $200 at the health food store on the vitamins, protein shakes (what I meant to say when I said 'protein' in my earlier post), etc for the diet, and then ordered another $50 online...and did not get any 'food'!<br /><br />Don't mention rabbits to my girls...they have been bugging for pet ones forever. And I don't think they, even being farm kids, would take kindly to the eating of them. We know one family that does that and it was not popular (they had played with the rabbits on visits and then they were gone...) <br /><br />My friend has chickens so we eat fresh eggs, and our own beef. As I said before chicken and my husband don't mesh, and the blood-type diet that had been discussed on this blog states that I am to avoid chicken also, and cured meats. Turkey is encouraged, and when time allows I buy one and roast, make soup, etc. from it.<br /><br />My daughter and I tried hydroponics for a science fair project and we failed miserably...twice! The sprouted seeds info sound intriguing. I hope to check it out sometime. <br /><br />My main comments on the diet, Dr. A, would be they still advocate artificial sweeteners, hotdogs, and other things that really make me shake my head. As for my husband, I have no doubt that there is a dental component as well, and that his eating habits are the culprit. I'll let you know how it goes.Tanyanoreply@blogger.com
