Guest guest Posted March 11, 2004 Report Share Posted March 11, 2004 >>>>enzyme inhibitors from white kidney beans Well, andrew, I have been working on a little article about that for the enzymestuff.com site. Most all of these Carbohydrate Blockers, or Carb Stoppers, etc contain the white kidney bean extract that inhibits amylase. If you read the bottles on the Fat Blockers, these contain lipase inhibitors. I talked to this with a couple of bright health professionals here (one a pharmacist) and they agreed these were not good to take regularly. Me: I want to look at the new carb blockers and see what's in them Them: Over there. Me (looking at bottles): Hey, this is amylase inhibitor. Them: Right. Me: So it works by shutting down amylase which is suppose to make the food unabsorbable. So your body wouldn't register you ate any carbs. Them: Right. Me: And theoretically you wouldn't absorb the calories or have insulin affected. Them: Right. ....long pause... Me: But this doesn't sound like a good idea. I mean, you could really mess up your digestion and get bad digestive problems from it if used regularly. Them: Right. Me: And then you would be in worse shape as well as not lose weight. Them: Right. They said it was probably okay to do once in a while like if you were going out to a special event or having something special...just not every day all the time. The pharmacist said the fat blockers really didn't work but the carb blockers did. But you shouldn't use the carb blockers all the time. Maybe instead of Carb Blockers and Fat Magnets they should just call them Digestion Disruptors. . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 11, 2004 Report Share Posted March 11, 2004 them pharamcists, the ones here on the northwest coast still sell a mercury based antiseptic despite my telling them of the problems. personally i think they would sell street drugs if allowed. obesity is not understood as malnutrtion which it is. by scd logic the increased bacteria/yeast biomass on the undigested carbs would be an inivitation to colitus > >>>>enzyme inhibitors from white kidney beans > > Well, andrew, I have been working on a little article about that for > the enzymestuff.com site.
