Sixty-Four Hour Changes in Oral-Intestinal, Extracellular, and Intracellular Redox Status After an All-Day Maillard-Coated Food Binge Followed by Two Days of Redox/Digestion-Balanced Culinary Medicine: A Pilot Single Case Analysis

Abstract

James A Cocores

Browned, melanoidin-coated, and Maillard reaction end-product-covered convenience and fast-foods are as addictive as street drugs. And drive overeating, systemic oxidative stress (SOS: pE- > pH+), and systemic reductive stress (SRS: pE- < pH+), overweight, and the leading causes of mortality and morbidity worldwide.

Redox/digestion-balanced culinary medicine protocols are absent as healthcare professionals and the people they serve begin to recognize that Maillard abuse disorder is the main obstacle to self-actualization and a long, accomplished, and content energetically ambulatory extended lifespan

. A PubMed search revealed no studies exhibiting sixty-four-hour changes in oral-intestinal, extracellular, and intracellular redox status after an all-day Maillard-coated food spree followed by two days of redox/digestion-balanced culinary medicine. The purpose of this single case study is to analyze changes, if any, in oral-intestinal, extracellular, and intracellular redox status after an all-day Maillard-coated binge followed by two days of redox/digestion-balanced culinary medicine and examine the feasibility of more extensive investigations.

The participant met inclusion criteria, drank Maillard-rich colas for breakfast, a small pizza, a peanut butter shake for lunch, a double bacon cheeseburger, and a dozen chicken wings for dinner and provided blood and urine samples. The volunteer then underwent redox/digestion-balanced culinary medicine detoxification and provided laboratory samples. TSH, TG/HDL ratio, VLDL/HDL ratio, LDL/HDL ratio, and urine pH+ measured oral-intestinal and extracellular redox status. The neutrophil-to-lymphocyte and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratios assessed intracellular redox status. It took sixty-four hours for the participant’s body and mind to neutralize the toxic manifestations of a day-long binge on Maillard reaction intermediate and end-products, melanoidins, advanced glycation end-products (AGEs), and advanced lipoxidation endproducts-coated and containing foods and beverages. More extensive investigations are needed to increase the Maillard abuse detoxification options. Healthcare professionals and the people they serve increasingly recognize that Maillard abuse is the main obstacle to self-actualization and a long, accomplished, and energetically ambulatory lifespan.
