Re: andrew on bananas / amines

>>>Even with no-fenol his behavior after eating even half a banana

was hyper, stimmy, etc.

When this happens, I suspect amines (which bananas have but No-Fenol

does not necessarily target). Look at other foods with amines and see

if there is a common reaction with this food chemical group. Also,

many neurotransmitters are amines if he has a problem with the

balance of those.

me too. just from my brief reading of karens link and a dictionary

definition of amines -

{

Any of the organic compounds produced when one or more hydrogen atoms

of ammonia is replaced with organic groups.

When used as a suffix in a long name for an organic molecule (i.e. " -

amine " in " glutamine " ), it indicates the presence of an -NH2 group.

}

fermenting seems to covert amino acids to amines so a ripe banana is

fermenting and coverting amino acids to amines and the riper i guess

the higher the amines.

the grapes i have been eating in the last day or so are starting to

feremnt, i wonder if that caused my migraine?

its interesting form an scd point of view because you are not

necessarily escaping fermentation by products by waiting until the

bananas are ultra ripe and hence minimal disaccaride sugar but it

does point to the huge potency of a food exclusion approach that

minimises fermentation in the gut.

Looks like you're " getting it " a little better than I am, lol.

Thanks for that SCD link. Very digestible, lol.
