magic bread
yeasty dough lives through the gi tract; engineer dough yeast to make pharmaceuticals n vitamins to create well being | |
we've all seen the things about rescuing
developing world people with vitamins or
pharmaceuticals
I was fortunate to eat a bunch of dough;
to my perception if you eat a bunch of
dough the carbohydrates plus yeast
make
it past the stomach then the yeast makes
lots of co2 causing a gas-passing
event
the gas passing event is proof that yeast
live, multiply, metabolize once at the GI
tract
Engineering this saccharomyces yeast to
produce vitamins as well as peptide
pharmaceuticals is known science
the product could be like cookie dough
thus basically eating gobs of engineered
bread dough gives physiological well
being, cures numerous diseases, plus
with
the AEDG longevity peptide makes
creatures live longer
there are nifty technology possibilities as
well: cystiene makes saccharomyces
grow orders of magnitude more rapidly
(if you blend a N acetyl cystiene nutrition
tablet with yeast you'll be goshing at the
fizz)
also the aspartame molecule which is a
modified peptide has been reproduced
as a gene product so you can have it be
sugar free but taste pleasant
epitalon AEDG as a longevity peptide

tamagotchis that teach

Unbaked? I think I'd prefer the suppository form. |
|
|
It won't work because baker's yeast is not
a normal resident of the GI tract. It might
survive for a short while after you eat it,
but I don't think it'll hang around. |
|
|
You'd be much better of eating vitamin
pills. |
|
|
the gas production effect lasted about
30 hours |
|
|
the thing is that you could have a blob
of cookie dough each d as a
replacement for developed world meds |
|
|
plus to make more vitamins or meds
you just make more dough |
|
|
I thought a little spore pak that went
with the tamagotchis that teach people
might be beneficial |
|
|
I suspect that your intestinal eructations
were not a direct manifestation of the
yeast. The acid test would involve a
cigarette lighter. |

Wait a minute. "I farted for thirty hours; if I continue, I'll cure third world sickness"? I promise you, the environ-mentalists are going to be seeking an injunction against you in no time. |
|
|
I think it's [bean angel]'s beans, not the
bread. |
|
|
Definitely a half-baked idea if ever there was one, but for completely different reasons than usual. |
|
|
Whenever i've eaten dough before it's ready, it's made me feel pretty rough, and it hasn't led to flatulence. The idea of GMOs which synthesise aspartame makes me want to die. |
|
|
I also find it hard to believe it can survive for five hours in the stomach. |
|
|
I have to say as well, that i do believe in being a green frondy dwarf living in a pond and surviving by sucking my hair, but i doubt anyone here who's seen my photo would be surprised by that. |
|
|
Incidentally, [treon], should i carry on calling you [treon]? If not, are you [be-an-angel], [bean-angel], both, neither or something which transcends all of these? |
|
|
I can't believe it's not Treon. |
|
|
Funny: at least one annotation is still labelled Treon, although the others seem to have been moved across. And I really like that we now have another account that contains ideas posted before it was created. |
|
|
Maybe everyone else on here is really [treon]. Maybe I'm [treon]. |
|
|
The first rule of halfbakery is you do not talk about halfbakery? |
|
|
This is the kind of thing which convinces me that the HB is a figment of my imagination. |
|
|
Or -- or maybe NOBODY is [Treon] and that thing we call [Treon] is a figment of our collective hallucination! |
|
|
If a post by treon falls in the halfbakery and nobody is there to anno, does it make any sense? |
|
|
Aspartame, to quote wikipedia, is not suitable for baking. Therefore, no idea containing aspartame can be realised practically and can only ever be halfbaked. It would break down otherwise. |
|
|
Concerning genes though, there would need to be a CTA codon and an AAA codon next to each other on the DNA strand. This would be a tiny modification and yes, it seems feasible, but i don't know what it would do to the machinery in the yeast cell. When it got to the stomach, it would stand a fair chance of being converted to methanol if there was more than a small quantity. |
|
|
I'm sorry, I'm still 'goshing' at the phrase
'gas-passing event'. |
|
|
Is it me, or did some of the annos just
disappear and reappear? |
|
|
Entirely unsure as to why farting is of such note, but I like the general idea of intenstinal flora that produce vitamins, etc. |
|
|
Problem is some of those vitamins are harmful in quantities larger than daily requirements. |
|
|
They already produce vitamin K, and some claim there are gut flora which make cyanocobalamin, but in the wrong place for it to be absorbed. Water-soluble vitamins might be less of a problem, but the big issue for humans is ascorbic acid/flavonoids, and ascorbic acid can cause kidney stones in overdose. |
|
|
They would also have to be in the right place. |
|
|
bun for "goshing at the fizz". Now where can I get some magic cheese for my magic sandwich? |
