Re: Minimalist Yeast Abatement Protocol
Initial testing with timed release N-acetyl-L-cysteine (Resbid) emulsified in flax oil:
o slightly bitter taste upon ingestion but no adverse reactions
o overall improvement in taste and appetite
This protocol has the potential of thinly coating the entire alimentary canal in the same manner that Wondro did in one of the major areas of yeast overgrowth, from mouth (coated tongue) to anus (pruritus).
NAC has one sulfur atom suitably positioned for acetaldehyde binding and can capture one acetaldehyde per molecule of NAC.
Linolenic acid (an omega-3 fatty acid) is one of the constituents of flax oil. The sulfurated form which appears when flax oil is heated together with elemental sulfur is referred to here as wondrenic acid (after Wondro). It potentially has three clusters of sulfur atoms:
There are more sulfur atoms per molecule (i.e. more barbs on the acetaldehyde bait hook)...but flax oil has other non-sulfurated constituents as well. The NAC used here is more concentrated with the timed release mechanisms of Resbid (Ecological Formulas) emulsified into the flax oil. As a result the total number of sulfur atoms available for acetaldehyde binding over time in emulsified Resbid might be comparable to Wondro, delivered in a mode of similar viscosity.
